^ this would def. help.

The only time I've had problems getting a motor mount to fit, we were trying to put the mount in the wrong hole... The motor didn't want to "stretch" any farther, lol. (This was on the drivers side though).

since no one answerd this.

FB's motor mounts attach to the Front of the engine, even the 13B FB's.
FC's have the mounts in the center of the engine
FD's I believe have them somewhere near the back (I'm just getting this from a picture of a fd i saw with no engine, and noticed the mounts were further back)

so yah, the center housing you have is from a 13B out of a FC, if I'm not mistaken, if you remove the oil pan, you will have mounting holes on the bottom aswell.

also, I'm no expert so dont take my advice untill someone elce can chime in
