Re: 223six to yblock swap. Different front mt?
There is an "ear" on the front frame cross member (welded on) for the Y-Blocks. Not sure why the frame/mount would be different on the F250 (possibly different if it was a 4X4?).
If you understand what you’re doing, you’re not learning anything.

Thanks Toyz an Gritz. I'm working on a lead for one now but it is not for sure. If you can dig one up I would appreciate the help.
I'll post for one in the classifieds as well.
I thought sure I was installing my new Y today! Oh well It's always a bunch of little hurdles seems like.
here's a pic.

Allen,
We just recieved a new Mac's catalog they've got a page full of front engine mount parts for Y-Blocks. If your still looking you might want to check it out.
