Yes, since the frame is 1954, the frame is angular rather then squared at the rear mounting point. This is the difference between earlier bell housings and the later ones. So, I made a couple of wedge mounting pieces that bolt to the frame to accept all of the earlier 6 cylinders back to the 1930's. This special mount system then accepts the standard rear motor mounts from ANY vintage thru 1962.

Hint: Go to your local older style Printing Shop that uses printing presses. Ask them for old printing press blankets. This is a nice thin rubber blanket about 12 inches by 18 inches. Makes super nice mounting rubber. While you are there, ask them for old Form Rollers. These are 12 inch wide (or so) by 3 inches around rollers with bearings inside each end. These make really great roller systems for putting on the end of your power saws or metal cutting saws. They usually just throw both away.
