1965 New Yorker wagon, originally a 413
Supposed a 65 vintage 413 in there now
Any idea why someone would make such a contraption? Should of fit, right?
Ok, so this is because the stock C body mount was shot?For a long time those factory mounts were out of stock and there were no replacements available, so people improvised. These days, Schumacher and others make replacement/conversion mounts so one does not have to get "creative".

The stock mount had a heavy curved base that was used to reach the frame attachment point. Check the casting date on the left side of the block to verify that you have a '65 413. There is a block casting number just above the date casting that identifies the engine. A stock '65 block will usually carry the casting number 2120529, 2205697,2468030. There is also a machined pad on the top of the block just opposite the distributor. '65 engine ID start with the letter "A". The pad should be stamped A-41 or A-413 if it is a '65 engine.
Interesting, I haven't ran #s yet, what do you think it is?The block in pic would be incorrect for 1965....
Should mount to the front tab and then two
holes on oil pump boss..
Thanks @300rag ,,,
My post should have read "just above oil pump boss"....
Fingers are slower than the mind.. lol
Not sure about the '63 / '64 but
that mount is same for '65 and '66 "C"
and also '67 /'69 383 Dart / Barracuda ....
True dat.IIRC, a lot of the blocks have the boss, but it's just not drilled.
The # is 2205697-1 , so it SHOULD be a 65 block, correct?The stock mount had a heavy curved base that was used to reach the frame attachment point.

Is this possibly a truck/industrial motor? It had a heavy duty thermostat it in ( I made a thread) I haven't really drivin it officialy, but it's tourquy as hellThat casting number was used for several years, look just below the casting number, there should be a casting date.

66 does not use that. It is 65 only for C bodies.

All it says is 59-65 413. AC is in the way of the pad. I haven't crawled back under it yetThat would appear to be a passenger block.
www.mymopar.com has the casting numbers for the various mopar engines
