I have used both Fusick and Inline's body mounts and I think Inline seems to be closer to an original ride feel. Check the service manual for proper torque specs.

I am finishing up another 70 442 convert with the Inline mounts and it feels pretty close to how my survivor cars feel, I also recommend you buy the bolt and washer kit from Inline just from experience.

I have just finished using a Fusick set. My only issue is that the bolts do not match the originals. They do not have either the flared head that looks like it has a washer and the ends are flat instead of pointed like the originals. Functionally they are fine.

Most all the repro suppliers sell complete kits. I've used Yearone, Opgi, etc with good results. Any A body kit will work, most kits do not come with the core support bushings and are sold separately. If your bolts are in good shape by all means reuse them.
