First generation 289 HiPo Mustangs and Shelby GT350s were too powerful for the standard V8 Mustang motor mounts so they were equipped by the factory with a robust motor mount design that could handle the extra load. These were used on all 1964 and 1965 "K" code Mustangs and Shelbys, as well as early 1966 Shelby GT350s. Concours reproductions of these extremely rare motor mounts are now available by Scott Drake. Each concours kit includes cast frame mounts with correct part numbers cast in, heavy-duty upper and intermediate mount brackets, vulcanized rubber mounts / isolators and premium quality hardware. All brackets are finished in a natural metal grey paint for corrosion protection. The architecture of these motor mounts is significantly stronger than standard V8 Mustang mounts and offers superior resistance to engine "lift" under hard acceleration. The through-bolt design eliminates the risk of tearing or ripping the rubber isolator. Later 1966 GT350s and all 1966 and 1967 "K" code HiPo 289 Mustangs used the same "re-designed" 289 motor mounts used on the regular 289 that were first introduced in late 1965.
