Okay ill try and make this as clear as possible.

I have an 87 Gt (automatic)
I "had" an 85 gt (2.8 / 4 speed transmission.

I pulled the whole cradle, engine and trans out of the 85 gt to do a manual swap on my 87 gt. i planned on taking the motor from my 87 cradle and just putting it on the 85 cradle since it already had the manual transmission and axles already in tact. Upon looking at it the transmission mounts i noticed one of them were broke but also noticed that the fiero transmission mounts are basically a 2 piece mount. What im asking is, can i take the mounts (not the brackets) just the mounts off my automatic cradle and use them on my manual transmission? They look similar to me.

According to RockAuto, both the '85 2.8L manual trans, and the '87 2.8L auto trans. use the following trans. mounts:

Front Left: Anchor p/n 2466, $1.90/ea

Rear Left: Anchor p/n 2467, $2.55/ea

These typically sell at AutoZone for about $8.99/ea

At the above prices, I would just buy new units, as they tend to be an affordable part.
A lot of the 25+ year old Fiero mounts I have seen are not in good shape.
