Are you restoring it or is it a driver. You don't need to be a member to start a build page.

The FE-FC HCC Queensland is still very much a going concern, but I don't think their website gets a lot of love. :P

Anyway, this page ($2) has quite a few different numbers you could try, or alternatively there is the Contact Us ($2) page where you can send them an email.

Justin , I was just looking through ' Vintage Holden Parts on ebay' and noticed toward the end that a bloke at Wacol is selling FC parts . I bought a few parts of him a while back and he had quite a few FC's in his yard that he was wrecking [that's what he does] so give him a try on the pieces you are looking for .Cheers Haydn

G'day Justin,

My engine mounts for the RB30 motor came from Castlemaine Rod Shop - bolted straight up and came certified for engineering. I was already running a red motor, so the mounts on the front end had been moved back. 

I used the RB30 gearbox mount and had a mate weld up some additional bits - was fairly simple but very solid and works well.

You could probably get all you need - engine mounts, gearbox cross member, etc from CRS or similar places.  The most important thing before you buy anything is have a well documented and thought out plan and stick to it.  Some of this stuff can be very costly and once you start cutting things up, there is no turning back........

But it is all good fun and very rewarding when finished  ;D

Good luck with your build,
Cheers, Graeme (JOX515)
