One thing that should be kept in mind when installing a 59A (or 8BA with truck pumps, for that matter) in a '35-40 Ford is that the front of the engine sits lower in those cars than in '41-'48 Fords. I am not an expert on this, but the Hurst Company certainly was when they were the "go to" source for engine mounts back in the day. Every Hurst catalog lists spacers to be used specifically when installing their standard engine mounts in the earlier cars. The Hurst mounts were a scientifically designed "system" that used a series of "engine" mounts that were to be paired to a set of frame adapters for each particular installation. Hurst specifically list "frame adapters" (spacers) to be used with '35-40 frames.
