Side Valve Ford V8 engine mounts are very similar .. 1930's to 40's . Beware of cheap imitations that don't last very long :o Some of them have a metal ring around the outside circumference of the rubber, this adds extra support and is well worth it

thats what i got on my 55 those mounts from the Ford Flat V8 model with the ring around it i used them for my Gearbox.
I bought them from a Hot Rod shop in the US.

Apart from the bolt (which on our '57 88" is 7/16 BSF and not stepped) the mount looks very similar to the ones I received today from MR. I will have to ask them where they sourced them from.
Woops:) Just had a look at the new mounts and the bolt is stepped. It would seem that what was on Leon was wrong and has been for a long time.
Learning all the time.:cool:
yeah you right about the stepped bolts the ones on mine are straight with a nylock at the end, ill see if i can find a pic i took before i installed them on the landy caus i remember they were not stepped bolts! does it matter?
While I was dismantling a 86" S1 I had a look at the orginal mounts for the gear box & there is a BSF threaded bolt with a castled nut & split pin going through both mounts I went & had a look at my 5 other parts series 1s and found the same bolt & nut set up on 3 more Landys.
