Default help with which mount to get!

just pulled my motor out to drop in a GTE block and found the top portion of my mount completely separated. Is the MKIV mount the right one to get or earlier years are better, i saw somebody in a thread using the mkIII one. Help is greatly apprciated.

you can use either bracket with the matching mount.

the newer engine mounts are cheaper than the older mounts.

what i meant is the folllowing:

if you have older mounts 93-96, you will need older brackets.

i have a set of older brackets (no mounts). 100 shipped for the pair.
