engine mounts

[nonglossjason]

What are the best kind and the cheapest? What are you guys running and whats your opinions. Where do i get some good ones?

lol. wut up nongloss. I had solid ones before. I liked them but the car vibrates more. Now I have Urethane and they are still real rigid but not as bad as solid.

C ya sat

Best and cheapest don't go together with engine mounts.

Cheapest will be mounts from the parts store (about 50 bucks for two motor and one trans mount, when I got mine some years back). If you go that route, I'd get vert mounts.


Poly versions will cost about 3 times that but should hold up better and will be a little stiffer.

Good luck.

 

[nonglossjason]

any other opinions?

for all the work that's going to go into replacing these, perhaps you should choose wisely.

I also agree, vert mounts are the best, however, only if you can find oem ones cheaply. Stay far away from the parts store junk, I've heard nothing buy nightmares about their motor mounts.

pony up the dough for some energy suspension motor mounts and be done with it.

Why and what is your reasoning for wanting new ones? Like said before cheap and good dont go together! If ya wanna stiffen up the engine then i'd go to summit and get a turn buckle, i just ordered mine andit should be here tonight cost me $64.90 with handling and there is no shipping to usa! Here is a link and it's even removable for street use. http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=CEE-4010&N=700+0&autoview=sku or go and get prothane mounts or the energy's? I wouldnt recomend solid ones cause i've heard at high HP levels that they have actually ripped the cylinder walls out of a block. peace

well the reason for it is because mine broke and they were the ****ty parts store ones. And i agree cheap and best does not go together i was just seeing what are the best ones at a resonable price. When i take off the engine is vibrating and i dont want that.

that's an interesting strap. My buddy just used a length of chain, and bolted it to the frame, worked great.
