Can somebody give me a suggestion of how to prevent the engine from an excessive movement.
While our last dyno run I saw the engine going several inches/cm up and down.
This movement could cause problems in my next topmout/backdoor intercooler setup.
Do you have some pics of different possibilities to minimize that movement?
Names of companies that sell such dampers/braces are also very welcome.

How does it feel after installing such dampers/braces. Does it lead a lot of engine vibrations into the car?

Thanks

 

Stuff that has worked for me:

ES Engine mount inserts - cheap and pretty effective, I modified mine so I could bolt them in to my mounts.

Hasport mounts - not so cheap and very effective

Engine damper - cheap ones are crap, expensive ones work, I use a custom one that I modified, just avoid the cheap $30 ones that have flimsy brackets that mount to places that are not structurally sound. The Ingalls "Stiffy" looks pretty decent, but I've never used one.


I feel a lot more vibration, but I have a 2.2L 12:1 stroker motor, so your results may vary. It doesn't bother me or cause the CD player to skip, so I'm not worried about it, although the change in the door pocket does rattle when I'm idling.

 

I have a solid rear motor mount and I just purchased a set of Avid Billett Torque Mounts, might be a little harsh with the vibrations but my motor/trans aint moving now.

 

like said above, either ES inserts or if you have the loot, spring for hasport (or equivalent ( which i dont think there are any as good) billet with urethane mounts.

I've had the Hasport and Avid mounts side-by-side and there's no comparoson. The Avid mounts look like crap compared to the Hasport mounts.

 

inserts are 36 $ shipped for the 2 torque and rear mounts...work great....rear mount will cause a little vibration

 

b series ... you can get ones called dv/dt, the sportcar motion white eg runs them, rodrez says they are stiffer than hasport just a thought same kind of pricing but are stiffer if thats what u are looking for!
