Re: Engine mounts

I have the Energy Suspension Poly mounts from RCR in the front. The Mid-mount via the adapter plate is through a couple of very dense nylon/delrin bushings. I have also crafted a rear mount/support for the G50 transaxle at the rear. This mount is solid.

I can't tell you what the overall net effect is because I've yet to start it or drive it. I would be somewhat concerned about using solid mounts into the sides of the tub for fear that it would magnify the vibrations - much like a speaker cone.

See my build site (below) for more details on how I did mine if interested.
