the engine mount doesn't get all sloppy lol. if you read/look it won't and doesn't. running trans mounts, engine mount, and torque damper is like fire proofing a pool.

lol you see what i'm getting at though. refer to my first post. powell mounts were meant to be used with a stock upper mount ONLY. solid upper mount was meant to be used with stock trans mounts(i wouldn't used one either way). and the torque damper was meant to be used with the stock upper. but do not use the torque damper with powell mounts.

sooo....having ttrs upper engine mount and their trans inserts is safe? lol. don't make "rotated" mounts or any type of mounts really for autos :/

autos idk. and as far as if ttr's STOP mounts work any different than a poly insert i can't say. aaron wanted me to test them for him because i helped him redesign his upper mount. but i had to decline because of my relationship with powell. i wasn't going to test a product for his competitor.

personally i had powell rotated front and rear mounts on my old m62 lsj for 2 years on a stock upper engine mount and had no wheel hop. was going to use them on my turbo lsj i have now but the first turbo would have hit the firewall after installing them and i couldn't hammer the wall in any further than it already was. so i stuck with the poly inserts that were in there. still got a little hop on rare occasions but it was mostly spin. but now that i'm running a different manifold and turbo he's making me some solid time attack mounts to run. but again it'll only be front and rear trans mounts. the upper motor mount and upper trans mount will remain stock. mounts and cabs mounts and cabs mounts and cabs. i can't say it enough, that's all you need.
