Hi Guys,
First; I've used the search function but can't really find what I'm looking for so I'm trying a new topic. I've also tried Google but couldn't find it there either.
My Pitts is down for some minor overhaul of magnetos, hoses, fuel servo and so in. I discussed with my mechanic and we decided that it's better to change the engine mounts while we have everything removed. They are about 20 years old. The engine is a IO-360-B1B that comes from a Beech Travel Air 95.
Do you know if I'm supposed to use the Lord engine mount that is for Pitts S1-S or for the Travel Air 95? Please, see links below for different part numbers at Aircraft Spruce:

See attached picture for how the mounts look now.
All the best,
Filip
