I used one for a Cadillac from the same vintage, but you need to drill holes in the frame as they are 90 degrees out. It worked beautifully though.

This was the reply on the Olds forum that helped me find the right part ...

I strongly suggest you buy yourself the seville 4.9 engine mount and pull your existing mount. Once you do this you will see exactly what needs to be done. I cannot comment on the easiest way to accomplish the modifications with the engine still in the car as I have pulled both the engine and transmission in preperation for my series 3 supercharged swap that is underway. I suspect you could get to this area after removing the radiator, fans, and a/c compressor. You may not have to do all of this, I am purely speculating. Worse case, you could visit a machine shop and have the seville mount cut open, the studs flipped to the proper position, and have the bottom of the mount welded back together. Aftermarket Seville mounts sell on ebay very reasonable...


I didn't end up having to do any removal of parts, just had an engine lift on top to be able to access the space to do the swap of the motor mount.
