    Are you talking about the frame stands? Or the mounts that bolt to the engine block?...

    302 motor mounts only. What is the difference from slandered mounts?

    The original 302 motor mounts had a "stud" that attached to the upper/lower halves (which prevented mounts from separating) and was filled in with rubber. All the aftermarket ones that I have seen, only have rubber that bonds the halves together......
    You can see the "stud" version in the 2nd picture of the RockAuto link that Tom provided......

    I would suggest getting the mounts with safety anchors (like the factory used) if possible.
    Many of the cheaper replacement mounts don't have them.
    If they are not available, you can make your own safety anchors...
