I noticed a knocking sound while engine runs. Not internal. I could grab the valve cover tightly and make it go away. Found drivers side rear trans/motor mount missing a few things. lol.
This is a 250 motor.Not 100% sure, but I think the bell housing is correct. I thought about drilling a hole in a hockey puck and bolting it in.Lol. I know the pics arent great, but one photo shows the other side with the rubber piece intact. It’s not in great shape. Wouldn’t mind replacing it as well. looked on classic industries and what they have looks totally different. I. leaning towards the hockey puck. In all seriousness, I do want to address it correctly if parts are available.

The 250 engine would not mount up to the original 216 bellhousing. From what your photos show
is that they are using a bellhousing from a mid 60's car and connected to the original torque
tube type transmission. It appears that someone fabricated some mounts to connect the
bellhousing to the crossmember. None of this is stock so it's not likely any parts supplier
will recognize any of it.

Mid 60's cars did not have mount positions on the bellhousing, they used a center mount
on the transmission. The truck bellhousing of that era did use rear mounts on the
bellhousing to crossmember. However, the crossmember is different as well.

Thank you Fred. I just may try the hockey puck after all. This gives me something to research.

I found something that fits. Better than metal in metal.
