    This is my first post. I know everyone wants to stuff an 8 cylinder in a Maverick. I want to go the other route. What do I need to but a 1983 200 CI in a '72 maverick that came with a 302. I know the mounts are different. Where can I get the mounts for my change over other than a junkyard? I need the mounts that bolt to the subframe not the rubber engine mounts

    Frame and engine mounts, bellhousing,seperator plate,flexplate,torque converter, radiator,starter are all different on the 200. The 250 shares some parts with the 302. Have all of this. Went from a 200 to a 302 in my sons car.
