Ordered MMR motor mount adapter plates for teksid swap

[whippledpony]

i ordered the mounts from MMR as they were the only ones to have some in stock, called JPC and SHM and no one had them in stock and didnt know when they would have them in stock, well i jst got them yesterday and only got one in the box, what my question is, should there be two plates or jst one for the swap?

i know mmr dont have a good rep but they are the only ones who had them in stock and i kinda want to get this swap done soon

Ford Racing didn't have any? I've only seen the frpp plates and there were two. They were also already mounted.

they were a bit more pricier than the mmr ones but i did not call about the ford racing ones

There's a reason for that!! The FRPP ones will fit like they should and work correctly. The ones from the fucked up company may or may not fit properly.

Teksids only have three bolt holes. The adapter plates that FR sells allow you to bolt the S197 mounts to any current 4.6/5.4 block.

The FR units come with new mounts because they mill the extra material of the back of the mounts to make up for the thickness of the spacers............correct???
