My current solid rubber motor mounts are blown and I'm considering switching to solid steel mounts.
This car is almost exclusively a drag car so I'm not hugely worried about vibrations etc.
I will probably also lower the motor a little bit in the process to pick up a little hood clearance.
In addition I would redo the tranny cross member and tranny mount. Currently my long tube header collector flanges fall right on top of my tranny cross member and that is a big P!TA so I'll fix that up as well.
I want to do all this before I do any final adjustment on my rear end pinion angle.
Has anybody done solid steel mounts, observations on vibrations etc?
