351c motor frame mounts

[Hemikiller]

Just a curiosity question from someone unfamiliar with verts; Why are vert mounts different to any other 71-72?
I know 73's are different, but why would the motor in a 71-72 vert need to be set in a different position?

From everything I've read, the mounts were set at a different angle to deal with a vibration specific to the the convertible body style. This goes back to the 67-68 cars. AFAIK they do not change the position of the engine, as there are no convertible-specific fan shrouds.

Interesting. Thanks for the education.
