Solid Motor Mounts Questions

[SanTa_]

Looking at a set or just one Solid Motor Mount.

I was more interested in only getting the drive side engine as a solid motor mount and the rest poly.

I see a lot of people go with the drive side and front with solid motor mounts.

I'd like to go with the one. Is that such a bad idea? 3 poly to 1 solid rather than the 2 and 2

I have never seen anyone go with just 1 solid motor mount on the driver side. That's completely pointless and serves no purpose. The engine is mounted horizontally so you would want solid mounts in front and rear. You can stick with poly's on the side.

Ah gotcha. Thought they usually were front and driver side when most people did mounts?

Just correct me if I'm wrong.

Nope. I would say front and rear or full polys. With the latest craze, people have been upping the front and rear with solid aluminum ones and leaving the sides poly.

Alright I appreciate it. I under now. The engine shakes front and back rather than side to side, correct?

Thanks for the heads up! :]

 

[crimsondragon]

Correct.

Slightly off topic, but I always hated watching dyno videos on our cars and just watching the engine drop at the end of the pull always just made me go wow.
