As you can see in the below cut away image, the engine rides on the durable urethane. This is how we control engine movement while not passing every vibration in to the passenger compartment.



The inside of the mount is interlocked. Even if you found a way to damage the mount, the stainless interlocking design will keep it all together. The design is built with stainless steel, so they will not rust. They accept your factory nuts. This means there will be no emergency hardware store trips.

I have been on the fence for 3 weeks as to replace or not replace the stock mounts on my Z. I dont drag much but figure if I have the motor out and a new monster going in I might as well replace them. What to do.

A good bit firmer than stock but not harsh.

I might be interested in a set. So are you guys developing some type of trans brace to go along with these mounts?

These look like an awesome alternative for Vettes predominantly on the street who are not wanting the harshness of solid mounts. Great work!

The transmission mount development is in process. We should be able to release them in a month.

Thanks!

Looks like a great design.

This would most likely cut down or eliminate wheel hop?

We'll be releasing a matching urethane transmission mount soon. They should help with wheel hop.

Thanks

Labor time estimate to swap these out for stockers in a car that is already built?
