Message	From what I have read, the Ford replacements work fine with very minimal modification. I believe that Woody75(Denver) has posted details about them that could be found in search. The Ford mounts will be much cheaper than oem but either will work. Replacements from NAPA also look very similar to stock, could possibly even be oem. Stay away from the Noltec urethane mounts, not sure if they are even still on the market. The new BDE mounts look like a great option but would be total overkill in your application. They would be well worthwhile on an installation that required more room to accomodate large turbos. Tim '91 TT Stage ??
