I have an early car (1971) with a late side shift and motor combo. I have stock "soft mounts" for the engine to bar connection. My car has original style soft mounts on the body. Looks like I should have solid mounts in one of these spots. Any recommendations? I am inclined to swap out the mounts for the bar to body connection as I am missing a few parts off these. Maybe Renline or semi-rigid WEVO mounts......
Solid Motor to bar mounts sure are cheaper. I have stock 911 motor mounts for my transmission. Thanks! |

The early car setup had rigid mounts at the motor & flex mounts at the chassis (ends of the eng. mount bar).
Just so happens that the early mounts at the chassis point are the same as the trans mounts for all cars. For later cars with side shifter that config was switched with flex mounts at the engine and solid mounts at the chassis (ends of the late eng. mount bar) If you still have flexible mounts at both points yes you need the late bar end chassis mounts.
