I am glad you got it! 
I remember getting annoyed at the place I got my disc brake kit on my old '60 F100 because the wheels wouldn't clear the new calipers and I had to grind a little of each caliper off to make them fit.  He said that I was the first one to complain- it didn't get heated, though.  Well, 5 months later I was looking at some old hubcaps I had and it dawned on me that the previous owner had wheels from a '48 on this '60.  Oooops.  Never mind.  

All suppliers say the same thing - "never had a problem before" , "your the first one"   B.S.

Jack, let us know when the mystery is solved; don't keep us in suspense. 

I got mine from NAPA. Still available at a reasonable Price.

  

my guess is they sent you the right mounts.someone in the past put on a set of 6 cyl mounts.ive seen it done before sets your motor back about 3/4 inch.

Hmmm, I'm wary of parts of unknown provenance. I suspect they may be mislabeled 6 banger mounts. I've dealt with Concours off and on for years and never had an issue. Arguing with a customer doesn't promote a good image.

I don't know the brand.  They came in a clear plastic bag.  I called Concours Parts earlier and told them I was sending their mounts back, and there may be a few scratches but I want a full refund.  The conversation got maybe a little heated.  He said they had sold hundreds or possibly thousands of these same mounts and I am only customer to complain.  Well, my mother always told me I was "special".

Made of the finest chinesium, no doubt. Are the new ones a major brand (Moog, Anchor-Doan, etc.)?

PROBLEM SOLVED!!!  It was the motor mounts.  Getting one of the new ones out and comparing it to the old one, there is a 3/4" shift in the attaching studs/bolt holes.  Very unhappy with the people who supplied the reproduction.

Thanks guys....

It all boils down to the engine mounts from what you have said (everything is forward from the z bar mounts to the rear emgine mount and the hole for the shifter)- so the mounts cannot be the same.  Check further on this.  Either the mounts are backwards, are the wrong mounts or badly manufactured. .  Do a closer examination of them - they may look the same but are they really the same?. Measuring them may tell the tale.

Do you still have the old mounts?
