tubular motor mounts
I have these tubular motor mounts mounted before with some of the polyurathane mounts. The problem that i had before was my headers hit my lower a frame on the driverside. Plus my urathane mounts broke. So i went ahead and bought a set of solid mounts that are about 1/2 taller. Everything seams like they will work, but wondering if it will efect my drivetrain from lining up right. My engine seams to slant a little bit more to the rear. Any advise will be apreciated. here's a few pictures of what i have.

Re: tubular motor mounts
everything bolted up fine, i don't have anything tight yet, because im waiting to get some new headers, and i may need to lift engine to slide them in.

Re: tubular motor mounts
Looks good, but isn't a .030 over 427 a 433?

Re: tubular motor mounts

Re: tubular motor mounts
When I changed over to my brodix 10.600 deck block I had to lower my motor in the frame half an inch . So I just lowered the tranny mount half an inch to keep it at the same angle . Since you cant adjust your pinion angle on a trailing arm you might check the angle with the tranny in both positions and see which one best suits you .

Re: tubular motor mounts
You may have to adjust the exhaust to meet up to the headers flange properly. When installing the motor plate in my truck I went up with it as much as possible with a slight slant to the rear and I need to cut the collector off the exhaust and reweld it since the angle changed slightly.

Re: tubular motor mounts
I had a friend come over and look at it and he said the same thing about my engine leans back to much. So what i did was ordered new poly mounts from energy suspension which they said will not break!!!!! I also plan running a strap just incase. Plus a solid mount looks like it could eventually break the welds on my tubular mounts. I guess that if my new headers hit my lower a-frame again, i'll have to put some spacers underneath the tubular mounts. To bad they don't make a mount that's inbetween the 2 sizes that they have. I have also figured out that just a few washers can make a big difference!!!!

Re: tubular motor mounts
Run it and see. You will know if somthing is off. I think this is the only way to be sure. You don't want to get too crazy though. Let us know.

Re: tubular motor mounts
the tubular mounts came from performance online. The solid mounts came from moroso. I can't sell the solid mounts, they belong to a friend. He let me try them to see if they would work.
