1965 transmission mount/filter/seals

Recommended Posts

For some reason my search function on this forum works so much better from a PC than my mobile device (phone).

 

Regardless, I went through Fatsco to source the filter and pan gasket.

 

I also needed to replace the transmission mount - that has turned into a wild goose chase that ended with me purchasing an Anchor 2374 (1973 Buick ST400 mount) and I'll drill a hole in the cross member to modify the mount fastener location.

Been there done that. Works fine.

The Anchor transmission mount worked great by drilling a hole in the center.  I also replaced the filter/pan gasket (Fatsco) and other seals/gaskets (rear output seal, extension housing gasket).  Right now everything seems to be dry but I'll keep an eye out for some wet cardboard!

I never heard of this Brand "Anchor" before now.

I've decided to change my 30 year old engine mounts once again and Anchor still has them for 1st Gen Rivieras.
