amazing. anybody can copy stuff. I wont tell you the clock, figure it out yourself, you can watercut a keyhole spacer if you want, hell you can grind the s**t out of your mount so you dont nned to , it wont matter until it breaks, and the bushings are not sold by GM as a separate part. We use a jig to replicate the job. It is always possible to jap this stuff that is the road to hell. Go ahead. and when you screw it up you can post here, and if it doesn't screw up you can give yourself a big old pat on the back...and buy a toyota.

call down buddy.first off im a flat rate tech. so i dont have that kind of money to shell out for some mounts. this would not be the first time i rotated mounts thats not that hard to figure out. all i wanted to kno is if i did that then all i would need to buy from you is that key hole spacer and how much would that cost me.

im also a little concerned about firewall/floor clearance as i have a clear image mid length header. im not so concerned about that as i am my exhaust as i built it to sit quite high in the tunnel as it is (its all custom). this is something i can change however.
very interested, im sick of the driveline vibrations.

So is this how the stock LNF cars come stock or is applicable to them aswell? Are these stiffer than the stock bushing at all? The stock LSJ mounts were horrible and allowed TONS of movement. So yea these might help with wheel hop and axle stress but what about power transfer? The stock mounts pretty much let the engine flop around like a fish our of water will this prevent that?

LSX RWD S/C conversion

Right now I have the 80mm pulley on the Harrop and there is little clearance between the pulley/belt and the front upper frame rail.

the Koni cars used a stock pulley thats bigger than 3.1 so unless the harrop is taller i cant see an issue, the actual movement is not a landslide here, and there is a reason beyond cost that GM didn't incorporate the idea in the LNF, their requirements for clearances are way beyond what you and i consider, things like front barrier crash movement, that is to say movement of the transaxle which is designed to go down and not straight back into the driver passenger compartment in a crash, and also GM have clearances for exhaust etc etc it all goes on for ever the criteria that have to be met.
At the end of the day they did not not do it, your fortune is that Josh at OTTP is selling the solution and it will most likely work for you with a Harrop.

i may have missed this , but what exactly comes with the stage 1 and 2 kit??? is stage 1 just the front mount and the rear spacer (no rear mount)??? is stage 2 the front mount, rear spacer and lnf mount insert??? is the core charge included in the price or is that over and above???

I just want something that I know is going to work. If it does help eliminate wheel hop, and it'll work with my tvs and jbp header (no comment...) and with less vibes, I don't care if it costs a little to get it. I just want something that works.
