Top engine mount

[1951 adam]

Is there a washer set under the mount, or just the 2 under the nuts... ? It lays directly on the head boss? any help is apreciated, cant get a clear picture in my parts books

I used washers inbetween the mount and the frame to shim the top mounting point so the engine mount wouldn't bend when I tightened it. And then of course washers on the outside as well.

Washers between head and mount and between mount and nut.
So at the head you use 4 washers.
Mounting to the frame. Bolt and washer through the right side of frame,
left side of frame shims between frame and mount, then washer and nut with cotter pin.
May be a lock washer under nut too, can't remember.
All hardware parkerized, mount is cad.

I've found that if flat washers aren't used in between the head and the top motor mount that the choke linkage (original for Linkert) will rub on the intake manifold.

I Always put washers between it and the head.The motor mount fork end has a tendency to dig into the head.

So in the factory photo....there are no washers, am I seeing that correctly, and the nuts are cad. Or look cad, lighting?
