Powell mount + LNF rear and motor + ingalls = wow

Well, I've had powells mount plus keyhole for the G5 with an LNF rear and motor mount for a while now. I had vibrations and wheel hop was still prominent but not as bad. I recently acquired a used stiffy, I bought new rubber I-rings and bushings to add to the bolts... OMG. No vibrations, no wheel hop, stiff shifts. It's amazing. I have a GMPP intake so I had to take the box out, which made my intake and exhaust seem like it sounds louder. I love how the car feels. Might buy a TTR motor mount to replace the stiffy soon but I love how it is now. Anyone else feel the same or different?

Once I put the stiffy on today, the car transformed. Everything about driving it is better.

Yeah you can get them used for cheap, but I had to do a lot of research about how bolts and washers are supposed To go in order. The O-rings were torn up, so I got 2 new ones, and bought "rubber" washers equal in size to the metal ones. But they're not really rubber washer, more like neoprene. They do the job of keeping metal off metal and there is absolutely no noise like I've read other people have. If you need help, just PM me and I can show you pics. Maybe I'll post some tomorrow if people wanna see what the ingalls looks like with the GMPP intake.
