    I am finishing my 5th Dino engine rebuild - all cars 1972 or later. On each rebuild I have found that the engine mounts were oriented differently than what is shown in the parts book. The aft mounts are upside down when compared with the book, and the rubber cushion is likewise upside down.

    In each case the engine had not been previously removed. Thus, I am confident that I am looking at the factory assembly. Has anyone else noticed this?

    Quite right - the parts books are wrong.

    Malcolm - thank you. You cleared that up quite concisely.
