    MK4 frame engine mounting holes

    The motor mounts on my 302 engine have one bolt that goes thru the frame on both sides but the frame has three holes and I would like to use the correct one the first time . Any help here would save me a lot of fiddling

    Do you have the motor mounts? If so, you'll see which holes to use. There is a left and right mount, and they only go one way. One of the holes in the chassis is a slot for a matching pin in the motor mounts.
