I bought a set of HT HG 253 308 engine mounts NOS for my LC v8 conversion as i was told this is what you use. i only got the rubber mount parts and now i have them they obviously dont bolt up like the HQ onwards type mounts. I need a picture or discription of the part that bolts to the block? or if anyone has some for sale. cheers dan |
