302 Oil pan and 65 Motor mounts

For the motor mounts...which part do you need, the frame mount or the actual motor mount -- or both? I've got an early 66 fastback that came with 65 motor mounts, and I've swapped out the frame mounts out for the 66 and later style and made my own (thanks buening) adjustable motor mounts. I'm not sure if I kept the old ones or not...I'll have to do some digging in the parts bin. It's been several years and a couple of moves, so who knows what may have happened to them.
 
I may be crazy but isn't there some difference in the 65 vs. 66 mount set-up? I could swear that you couldn't combine parts from one year with the other or maybe it was something to do with getting the engine to sit lower for hood clearance...anybody?
 
You're not crazy, the 65 and 66 are complete different. The 65 have a bolt that goes down, and the 66 up the bolt goes front to back. One set does make the engine sit a little lower...can't recall which one off the top of my head.
 
I need both the frame mount and the actual motor mount. If you happen to find them and want to sell them, let me know. Thanks!
