Pick my Motor Mounts!

C-DUB · 10-14-2009, 06:09 PM

OK, so here is the deal...

I originally bought the Trans Adapt LS1 motor mounts... And to put it nicely, they suck. I used the Clam Shell side, cut the rivets open and used Energy Suspension Poly inserts, and then bolted them closed again. The real issue is the motor side of the mounts. the 2 vertical plates aren't even close to being parallel, and taper towards each other probably a good 3/8", so much so that there is no way to fit them over the poly inserts on the frame side! I couldn't even get them to fit on the factory inserts without angle grinding some of bushing off.

I will get some pictures tonight to better illustrate my issues.

Anyways, so my question is... Can someone point me in the direction of some good motor mounts, Engine SIDE ONLY, that will actually be gapped right to fit over my poly motor mounts...
