Default VetteBrakes motor mounts

Has anyone tried these on their street car? They look like they would make the entire car shake, but might help the torque make it to the ground? I might want to try these on my car but need some info first, thanks for the help!

Try the Corvette Racing section, a few people in there have used these, and are happy with them.

I will be running them next year, but don't think you would need them on a street car. I ran OEM mounts this year, and never had a problem. However, I switched to an ATI damper late in the year, and it sit sooooo close to the sterring rack that I did have some rubbing under braking due to engine movement.

I'll go solid next year.

I have them in my car. The mounts are quite solid and I notice more noise and vibration, but they are just fine for a street car.

But then, you might question my judgement since I think 700+hp is just fine for a street car as well. :lol:
