Replacing motor and transmission mounts in a original 1973 1.7. Any suggestion on the type and where to purchase? Thanks,

Ken

I think either the 914-6, 911, or WEVO mounts will work great for you. I f8nd that minimizing deflection at the transmission mounts does seem to help with shifting.


Ok good, but they'll need to be modified or not (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

When i purchased my 911 mounts they were the only option , but the only modification made was slightly enlarge the holes in the ear of the mounts easy peasy and you can see from my pictures after 6/7 years they look and work like new, still nice and tight, no extra movement, very tight.
Back then URO had not stepped up and made a solid reproduction of the original mount.

The 911 mounts will work just fine, but i would not heaitate to test out that 914/6 reproductuon from URO. Drew will stand behind the product i am sure if its not up to your satisfaction
