I'm about ready to drop my newly overhauled 235 on to the frame of our 1950 AD. Do I need to have different motor mounts to support this 235 (taken out of a 1962 1/2 ton) or can I use the motor mounts used to support the 216 that was pulled out of the truck ?

The motor mounts on the 216 would have been the drilled front engine plate and the mounts off the bell housing. Are you using the same bell housing/trans combo? You can swap out the front plate or drill the 235 plate.

Drew,
I am using the same bell housing/trans combo. Are you saying I can use the two aft mounts but and then use a new front mount for the 235?

Yes. You can switch the front plate on the 216 to the 235 or just drill the 2 holes in the 235 front plate. It's been discussed in this forum if you care to search it.
