I really hope someone on here knows the answer to this... It is really frustrating me. I have googled it for hours and can't figure it out. I have a 1991 2500 4x4 Suburban with factory 6.2. I am installing a 6.5 and replacing mounts while it is out. I have received the wrong motor mounts twice now, which is a huge PITA for me as I live outside of town. The parts guys have been zero help. They all say the sbc,bbc, 6.2 and 6.5 use the SAME mounts from like 73-99. THEY DO NOT. They might be similar but they are NOT the same. Yes, they will mount to the engine side but the frame side is different, and some even have a different offset/angle to the center bolt hole.
This is the 1st mount I was given:

They said it is the only mount for my application and was used from 73-99. My frame side is flat, it does not have the step to it. I tried different years,models, engines until I found this one which I thought was the one I needed :

This was listed as being for an early 80's 6.2l . Weird, I thought they were " All the same" ..... Still not the correct one. Mine looks very similar but it is a tad bit longer and the bottom of the mount on the frame side bolts to the frame with a single bolt through the middle hole..
So, yes they all fit the engine side, but the frame sides are much different.
Can someone PLEASE help me figure this out so I can get the correct mounts?
THANKS!
