    Are solid motor mounts bad for chassis?

    Just keep the sotck mounts and drill a hole through them and use a grade 8 bolt. That will hold a hell of alot more torque than you think. I think I used a 3/8 bolt on mine. Read that in one of the mustang books. I haven't had a problem yeat and I run the car pretty hard.

    Anyone used Holley projection fuel injection??

    I asked this question a while back and didn't get much of a response so I'll chime in. I was looking at it for the same reason you are. From what I gather it's not a bad system. As far as how well it will perform on a modified engine I'm not sure of that. You might want to look at talk to the...
