I've had problems with them, and I've had customers with problems. Most of my experience is with the Bseries into EK mounts. The transmission mount is a two piece design held together by 2 allen head bolts. If they have since changed the design, good for them. According to Avid, they had some mounts go out with the wrong size bolts. Anyways, I've seen this mount seperate and break engine parts. Luckily, my friend was able to spot his before it fully seperated. I ended up welding my together shortly before my Hasport mounts arrived. I was never really impressed with their fit or the mushy urethane they used as inserts. I could never get them to line up real well. Hasport, on the other hand, fit and performs very well, BUT you pay more for them than AVID. I spoke to AVID about this issue and they sent me the wrong mount with a complementary set of their torque mounts. Now, this was awhile back, and they may have changed their ways. If so, great for them.
