The engine block puts off a lot of heat. This heat can quickly murder a pair of motor mounts. What Ford put on there to solve this issue doesn’t usually cut it. Not to mention, they’ve probably been tossed from your car decades ago during service. California Pony Cars has a better solution, and it comes in the form of their new Ford Small Block Motor Mount Head Shields.
These new heat shields are made to work on 1964-1/2 through 1966, and 1967 through 1986 260/289/302 Ford engines in the Mustang, Cougar, and Falcon. The design is vasty improved over the factory ones.
They are made using precision CNC machining to meet factory fitment, but now come in a heavier gauge stainless steel, as opposed to the carbon sheet metal used by Ford. Learn more about these heat shields below.
Official Release:
Ford Small Block Motor Mount Heat Shields
Cal Pony Cars has once again picked up where the Ford factory fell short with new and improved factory motor mount heat shields. Motor mount “Heat Shields” came factory on all 1964 ½- to 1966 but will also work on 1967-1968 260, 289, 302 small block engines for the Mustang, Falcon & Cougar.
Fords factory motor mount heat shields were originally made of thin carbon sheet metal and prone to rust, crack, and splitting prematurely and in most cases these were lost or never reinstalled after engine rebuilds.
California Pony Cars has greatly improved the durability of the factory motor mount heat shield using precision CNC machines to all original factory specs and improving them with heavier gauge stainless steel material to ensure long life of each shield and the rubberized motor mounts. These heat shields are imperative in detail and function to any type of build, concourse, resto mod, etc. Fits all 1964 1/2 -1966 & 1967-1968 260, 289, 302 small block engines for the Mustang, Falcon & Cougar.
