Not Sure What To Do

i am looking into getting rid of wheel hop i already know that i need the rotated trans mounts and/or upper engine mount what i plan on doing is purchasing both the trans mounts and the engine mounts since i have the money...i was looking at the zzp rotated mounts or the TTR rotated mounts then for the engine mount i was looking at the TTR upper engine mount or the ingalls stiffy.. i'm not really concerned about the vibration that won't bother me i mainly just want to know which combo would be best for my 07 ss/sc....thank you in advance and i apologize for another wheel hop thread

Powell is best, everyone else is just a rip off of them.

They were the first ones to design the rotated mounts.

This is a stupid blanket statement, while most consider powell the best not everyone copy thier design. ZZP mounts look nothing like powell mounts.

whatever rotated mounts you get, theres no need for an upper mount or even the ingalls. they were designed around the stock upper mount. are you talking about wheel hop in general, or wheel hop at the track? if you're talking about the track just get some slicks and have fun

Powell Stage 1 rotated mount with rear spacer.

John Powell is the man. He was contracted by GM to make mount upgrades for the Time Attack Cobalt. He did his research and made a great product.

Go with Powell Stage 1 mount with SS/TC rear mount from Crate Engine Depot. No vibrations and absolutely best money I ever spent on the car making it more driveable.
