hey I just aquierd A 62 221 V8 engine. I will use this engine for my V8 conversion if I can get it in my 66 mustang. my question is since the 221 is supposed to be the same block as the 260. and there were some 65 mustangs that had 260's in them right. well if thats true then would the motor mount kit in NPD fit the 221. it says the mounts will fit any motor from 65 through 70.

thanks
