1937 Zephyr Front Engine Mounts same as Ford V-8?

Hi folks, anyone know if the Zephyr engine mounts are the same as the Ford V-8 of the same year??  Can't believe Henry would have two different mounts but my originals are flat and the V-8 reproductions are somewhat domed.

John, I am not sure if they are the same, but we just had a discussion on the Ford mounts on the Early Ford V-8 Forum. The conclusion was that Bob Drake made the best mounts.

 

The Zephyr mounts may have a different hardness than the Ford / Mercury as the engine is heavier. Too soft mounts cause clutch chatter and too hard mount transfer the engine vibration back into the car.
