So my wife left me today.. don't worry she will be back, she is just at a conference in Las Vegas. But since I am a single father this week with 2 small helpers.. I decided to get to doing some projects that I have been putting off for a while..
Today I give to you the dimensions of motor mount, I measured an aftermarket one directly off of a 1967 200 and compared it against one that is a factory stock part that is of a different design, but same bolt hole measurements.
This first picture is the aftermarket motor mount that I used for the measurements, and all the important measurements that you would need if you were building a replacement.
In case it is hard to read, the text from the pictures..
Measurements from points
A -> B = 2 1/2"
A -> C = 3 3/8"
A -> D = 5 1/8"
A -> E = 4 3/4"
Line between B -> E represents an imaginary 90° angle that originates in the center of the bolt that holds the motor mount onto the frame mount, and from that point it is extended up until it meets the vertical upright portion of where the motor mount bolts onto the engine.
B -> E = 4"
The angle of interest is point A and it is 60°.
For something else that I am working on, here is a picture of my 2yr old helper and a factory frame mount with a C7ZA-6038-C (Blue*) motor mount still bolted to it.
The motor mounts themselves are very different looking physically, but the bolt holes to mount to the engine in relation to the bolt that holds it onto the frame mount are in the exact same location/orientation. These bolt holes are in the same plane.
