Default Motor mount parts help, please

I'm swapping an ohc6 in my x-body Olds Omega, which uses the 1st gen f-body subframe.
https://forums.maxperformanceinc.com...d.php?t=837283

now I'm struggling with finding the correct motor mount parts. Would need insulator and frame bracket.

The picture in the Pontiac Service Manual does show for the 6 Cyl engine the Tempest, I think.

So I'm lost a bit and appreciate any help!

Is this a correct f-body motor mount for an ohc6 engine?

Any other source or used parts from forum members are highly welcome!

There are two types of mounts and brackets for our OHC's.
Tempest and Firebird.
The Tempest mounts use a long connecting through bolt to secure the mount to the frame bracket while the Firebird mounts have a center bolt provision in the mount and the primary frame brackets are a taller "stand" type design with supporting brackets.

The first 2 images below are Tempest parts and the last are Firebird.

Cheers.

Thank you Jeff.

What I assumed you confirmed, that my service manual just shows the Tempest version!

Someone hast a set of this parts left for me, please?


Shipping to Austria or Humble, TX will be required.
