the holes are already there, you just have to find the brace or make one. The 6 bangers' oil pans had the sump in the wrong place for the brace so they didn't put it on there,
You'll find that the Maverick/Comet are a very Generic body style like many cars are, pull up the bench seats and you'll find holes in the carpet and punch marks for bucket seats. front frame mounts for the engine is the same just different adapters, the trans mounts crossmember has the holes for both 6 and V-8s, etc.
: While converting my 70 Mav from 200-I6 to 302, I realize there should be a brace under the oil pan, but are there any holes down there to bolt it up to and where could I get one?
