TH400 Trans mount doesn't fit, can't find one that does......
What is up with this? I thought that all turbo 350 and 400's had the same trans mount. You know, the two bolts on the outside that go into the tailshaft housing, then the two threaded holes in the rubber part. You know the one. Anyway, I have one of them and after rebuilding the TH400 for the 68' I went to put the mount on and put the tranny on the chassis. The mount didn't fit. The two bolt holes that are supposed to line up with the holes in the tailshaft housing are too narrow. I get one bolt in and the other one is about one hole off to the narrow direction. So I thought maybe there were two of these things, and got another one from my local parts store for that very car, he looked it up for me, then I took it home and it's the same as the one that I already have. What's up with this thing anyway? Is there such a thing as a first year only trans mount?????? I'm ready to cut the ears off of one of them and weld some new ones on that are wide enough to line up with the holes, but it sure would be easier to just buy the right one for 5 bucks or whatever they are.
