'26-'27 body blocks

I found a bunch of body block for a '26-'27 T in my father-in-law garage.
Trying to research where they belong, it seems that go on a roadster or coupe.
Does the touring car need blocks?
If so, where can I find where they go? I have been under the '26 T, and have not seen any place for blocks.
I am replacing all the interior wood and have a lot of left over pieces. It seems that the T is either a really late '26 or a '27.

Thank you,

The blocks go in between the frame at the rear engine mount so that you can tighten the rear engine mounts and not crush the frame. There will be a number stamped on the frame right under the passenger door that will tell you the year and month.

I googled and found this on Antique Auto Ranch.
