Also going to fill the voids in the trans mount too. Probably going to shatter my teeth idling. Probably not even going to keep them in. Just bored is all. Anyone ever do this?

If you know what a stock one looks like, it should be obvious. But the pics kinda do suck. I cut metal out the same thickness as the motor mount body to fit in the voids where the mount flexes. Then proceeded to weld the plates in. The top picture sjows it best. I'll have a pic of a stocker up tomorrow.

Yeah I might need to try this with the EZ mounts. Speaking of, I can actually get at them. I'll take a look at them right now!

Oh wow, solid motor mounts. Talk about no engine movement.

Are you guys picking on my welding skills? Or does the double deuce have that much torque?! lol

things were made to flex for a reason. when they dont get to, they will always figure out a way to get back. let us know what it did to what you feel inside the car.

Has anyone tried the window sealer trick? I am thinking about it on mine since I don't have the time to save up and buy Group N's before the motor goes in.

I have another set that I am going to do the epoxy of a shore 60-80 hardness. Box in the mounts and pour it on it.
