I wonder if that cast mount came form an IH. I know it came form the remnants of a semi truck in the junkyard, we removed them a few years ago.. but there wasn't enough left for me to recognize the make. The mounts were pins on the frame and those round castings bolted to the engine; opposite of how I'm now using them.

Pressing new bushings in the old housings. Excuse the cobbled together stuff to do so, didn't need to cut off a piece of the pipe that fit over the bushing if the whole thing fits in the press right...

turned some pins and made some plates to bolt to the flywheel housing.
