I can't find the engine mount support brackets anywhere. do i need to change the perches to the newer style? is that even possible without major changes?

Good morning,

What happen to the old perches?

Can you upload a picture of the mounts?

the perches are there but the upper support brackets that bolt to the block where gone when the truck arrived, Apparently you can't buy them.

That is correct. They were discontinued years ago.

I would suggest going to a junkyard and taking them off an engine in the junkyard.
