350 Motor mount bracket question.

[ali_c20]

I replaced my rubber inserts clamshell inserts with poly ones and now I have following question:

Is it better to use the original motor mount bracket which also sits on the tabs of the insert or can I also use an aftermarket bracket that only sits on the bolt?

I used the original one.

If you have the originals, just use them. The tabs make the install much easier because you just set the engine down in there and the tabs line up the bolt holes for you.

I always wondered if I did it Wrong or my energy suspension mounts were wrong because of how the tabs don't both like up with the motor bracket... I guess that just how they look

I used the original mounts with summit racing brand inserts. The inserts are directional and if installed correctly all should line up. Except the after market stuff is different.

The last set of clam shells would not fit the stock lowers they are for a narrower frame mount (solid mounts) I recognize them because I'm using a set on my 78.

I used the picture as an example as far as I can remember...
