Thanks that will satisfy I bet. If I want more I'll get bigger/better heads and intake later

Should be a fun street car. I've seen many gt40p combos dip decently into the 12's.

All those parts in the house and on the carpet, you must be single. Congrats on the stockpile.

Gearbanger 101 · Mar 27, 2013

From what I remember, the Prothane Engine mounts actually raise the engine by nearly and inch. Could be a hassle trying to get header/hood clearance. I went with the Energy Suspension units myself. They're dimensionally the same as stock, just made of urethane.

5point0stang88 · Mar 27, 2013

Thanks I just heard that on another board, I think I'm go with the Energy Suspension ones since I wanted the convertible style mount like I bought, but without the cheap build
And yes single haha thanks, but still when I wasn't I got away with having half that in the living room before she got tired of it lol

Other mounts I was looking at are these

Nice!!!

Get that stuff off the carpet! My OCD kicking in again.

You could always bolt a Vortech Supercharger on that later and make 425HP easily. No need to buy all that stuff over again.

Yeah you're right... that's why I just now was thinking of staying 302 instead of doing a 351w and whatever route with that, cause I don't want to buy all over. Thanks
And the heads have cardboard under them but they are clean, and everything else is brand new lol!

Nice pile of parts you have there. Sounds like a fun weekend worth of work..

HuskerNation · Mar 27, 2013

What are you doing for trans mount if you don't mind me asking?

I bought these about 1/2 year ago... They are definitely worth the money, especially getting the trans mount with it.

And plans on suspension work? With that power, you might want to be able to put it to the ground

I used the Energy Suspension Urethane trans mount, my motor mounts on the other hand look like home made units out of blocks of aluminum via PO.....lol seem to work so haven't messed with em yet!

Gearbanger 101 · Mar 27, 2013

Another vote for the Energy Suspension trans mount. No issues.

88LX5.Oh · Mar 27, 2013

Have you converted to MAF?
That TFS stage 1 will not work with speed density.

Also, on dads drag car, he had regular rubber motor mounts until he bought the Energy suspension motor mounts and tranny mount. The engine mounts along with the new tranny mount I guess raised or angled the engine enough to cause the long tubes to hit the floor boards when they previously didn't.
But on my car, they didn't raise the engine any at all compared to the rubber ones. I guess we have weird luck
I would still definitely go Energy Suspension mounts. They're really nice quality.

I'll bet you anything that the mounts on your dads car were made by Prothane and not Energy Suspension. The Prothane Mounts are famous for raising the engine above stock height, the Prothan are built identical to the stock dimensions.

Thanks for the link on the blue oval, should it same quality as Energy?
Also using rubber trans mount right now.
I'm converted to MAF already, 70mm

From the couple people I know who have these, they have had them for years and they are still as durable as when they were first bought. One set has been used for 8 years, on a 10sec Mustang.

Look at the SKU number. They are Energy Suspension mounts.

They make new pistons every day, so why worry?
