Finally getting ready to send my '71 I've had since new to the restoration boys at Stalltek for paint and six conversion work.
I've never figured out the search function so would like opinions on the best bulkhead engine mount options- want a factory look and will be doing a mild 2.4 E engine build. The car has already been converted to a side shifter some 30 years ago... getting the sheet metal I got here on a group buy powdercoated as we speak. Have at it guys... |

I would agree with the above if you are staying with a small six. But you need to consider that you may want a bigger engine in the future. If you do, you want the stronger motor mount.
The Naroescape mount is really good, as is the Rich Johnson mount. |

The Naroescape mount is really good, as is the Rich Johnson mount. I’ll be using the maddog oem replica for a built 3.4 engine. I’ve already seen it in place on a hot 3.0 (300 hp on a Peter Dawe built engine) I tried the Naroescape mount. No bueno. Eventually I will remove it from my car and make the tin and everything fit properly bum not the first one to have problems with that mount but it sure was frustrating. Stronger is sort of a relative term. Has the oem mount proven to be inadequate for big engines or is that just your perception. I have seen big engines in real sixes without issues. Some of them get flogged pretty hard on the track. The nice thing about an oem style mount is everything fits the way it should. |
