You know what? I was talking without the benefit of knowledge, I just know my own car and my research has all been aimed at the 86. Thanks, Papo and Muffinman, for pointing out the fix. If I have to have the engine or trans out for any reason, I'll be looking for a c-52. Though I'm sure my worn out motor mounts can't help.
