Jeff,

let me look in my spare parts box tonight, when I repowered the F-32, I pulled out the 71c's and replaced with twin disc 502'2 I sold the velvet drives but kept the mounts, I offered all of the parts up for free a few months ago just to clean up the side of the house and didn't have any takers on the mounts, I'll have to look and see if I kept them, I may have taken them to the recycle yard, if I still have them I give them to you, just pay the frieght

Theres a bunch of different ones you can actually use in your application. Its not critical that the ones you use are identical to the ones that came out, just that they have the proper bolt pattern for the gear box and will then bolt to your mounting location. The assembly in between came in several styles over the years.
