Default FE engine mounts

I have an original 1966 427 side oiler block and the engine mount bolt location appears to be the same left to right. The only modification that I know of was the lower corner has a radius on the LH mount instead of being square I have about 5 pairs of mounts that I have replaced over the years and they appear to be identical left to right at the block mounting plane.
Bolt spacing is 2.5" on both mounts, the original ones that came in the car were
C1MM has Tom stated. The other mounts I have used were just full sized Ford FE mounts with the LH lower corner trimmed. These mounts have two bolts for the block and 1 stud for the frame mount. Ford probably gave Shelby The MM1 mounts because they had a bunch left over from poor Marauder sales and needed to "balance them out".
