My '57 LCF still has the original 283 and as far as I know the original mounts, still going strong! I pulled the engine and tranny a few years ago to replace the clutch, put it back together with the same mounts it came with. I was curious just in case I have to swap engines, I have a 383 that I built for my Vette but decided to keep the plastic Chevrolet stock, so an extra small block is ok for me to hang on to.
