Energy Suspenion makes them. I don't have a part number because I bought the entire kit (comes with all the bushing on the car as well). You can order them from Jeg's. :cheers:

Re: Polyurethane engine mounts????? (Corey 68)
Checked out the Energy Suspension motor mounts at Jeg's. But, which one do I need, they have short and wide (2-5/8"W x 1-3/4"H), tall and narrow (2-3/8"W x 2-3/16"H), or "early clamshell style" for '73-'98. They have the motor and tranny mount kit, but it excludes corvette :confused:. i'm trying to avoid Eckler's, since the same motor mount is $40 there, compared to $25 for the same one Jeg's.

Summit or Jegs has them cheaper than any Corvette specific vendor. Call em and they should be able to help you get the right ones. Thier tech lines can help you. I suggest the black ones which are graphite impregnated.

I bought mine from Summit. They're made by a company called "Prothane" which sells complete poly bushing kits for our cars also. I bought the entire car's worth of polyurethane mounts and bushings - I don't want to do this again!

You need the short and wide ones. I JUST did a comparison at the local speed shop. The tall and narrow are not even close to fitting.

Oh yeah, Kragens has them for about $10 cheaper than summit! EACH! I notice Summit is getting a little pricey on some of the knick-knacks it takes to complete or detail an engine. Pays to shop around.
Short and wide on the big blocks too. The narrow ones wont fit over the frame bosses.

I suggest that you also get the locking -type motor mounts.
