For those who want/need stock BBF to intermediate chassis 3 piece engine mounts at a fair price, these look to be correct:

Yeah, It's a Hybrid...It burns gas and tires.

he said it was off a 77 lincoln Mk, not sure those are the right mounts for the 72-76 ford intermediates.

The Mark series uses the same basic frame layout as the intermediates, just like a '75-'76 T-bird. I guess the best way to confirm is to ask for part numbers.

They will work. Thunderbird 72-76 and Mark IV, V are the same frame, just longer.

yes I know 72-76 t birds and mk's work but on the listin the OP put up the seller said the mounts were of a "77" lincoln mk in the description, thats why I questioned whether they were correct.

If anyone buys them and fancies giving me exact dimensions I can see about making up a batch of frame side mounts to work with the full size block mount

73-79 all share the same part #. Mark IV/Mark V Tbird, Torino, etc.

ah ok, I was always under the impression they had to be 72-76 to work, didn't know the mk's still had big blocks in them in the 77-79 cars.
