Good Morning everyone
My question to day concerns motor mounts. I went to change the transmission mounts and I noticed on my 62 G B are a bit different... Is it possible to use the mounts of the early or late? or is that going to get me in a can of worms...?
warmest Regards and thanks in advance for your help...

When I parked pointing uphill, the gas poured out fairly steadily. I turned the van around so the left side was a bit higher than the right and the dripping stopped.
