Turbocharged Tranny Mounts?
 
Are the tranny mounts the same mounts as the ones on a ss/tc? and if they are would it be worth them to buy them and install them on my ss/sc instead of other mounts?

If you are asking are they the same as rotated mounts then no but for the ss/sc they are stronger than our stock ones they will eliminate some wheel hop but not as much as rotated will if you aren't putting down that much power I would suggest doing the ottp stage 1 mount with an ss/tc rear my personal opinion of course

I have them on my SS/SC, and I noticed a nice change. You can tell they are much stiffer just by comparing the 2 mounts side by side. I couldnt believe how soft the production SS/SC mounts are. With my Ingalls TD set at 10mm (stiffest setting) & GMPP Trans Mounts I have almost zero wheel hop. The only time I get a sense of hop is at the top of 1st gear when the tires arent fully warmed up.

Are they worth getting to try and save the money?

TC mounts are the ones from the GM wheel hop kit for lsj's. I would say just get the ottp stage 1 mounts and be done.

If they are the same mounts and everyone still suggests OTTP mounts then does the GM wheel hop kit suck? lol

i have the wheel hop kit, i got it for free. but i bought the stage1 mount, if that defines how good the GM wheel hop kit is.

Tarheel62592 07-15-2010 01:02 PM

That seems to do it lol i might try what JHanns suggested and buy an OTTP stg 1 and a rear tc mount

I already made the mistake of buying both tc mounts, couldnt tell a difference at all (29k on the car), and Ive already switched to OTTP in less than a months time.

northvibe 07-15-2010 01:37 PM

they are a ok part, it just depends on what you want. if you want zero wheel hop then you go ottp stage 1/2. the gm kit would be good for DD and not a lot of power.

scotch89 07-15-2010 01:48 PM

i was talking to a guy that had the GM wheel hop kit. he was saying once he got the stage1 mount in and left the GM rear mount in with the spacer, he felt zero wheel hop! so i cant wait to see how this is!!!!
i had those poly inserts in mine, and once the dealer swaped them for the the wheel hop kit and i went to start it, it sounded like a hybrid lol. i didnt think it was started, cause it was so quiet lol.

Tarheel62592 07-15-2010 02:02 PM

lol you just confused me, what spacer? and what poly insert?

scotch89 07-15-2010 02:03 PM

theres a spacer in the ottp mounts.poly inserts for stock trany mounts

Tarheel62592 07-15-2010 02:16 PM

So what do you reccomend then?

No it does not suck .... Not many people on this site have the full GMPP Wheel Hop kit. They usually just go with the OTTP mounts because they work just as well and are cheaper.

My car is making a good deal more power since I installed my H62, and I still dont experience that much wheel hop with my setup. I don't know how my it would be at the track, but it works fantastic on the street.
