Hi All-
New member here. I have the engine out of my '73 2.0 to address some fluid leaks and noticed that the engine mounts were unusual. Going through old paperwork, I found that a PO had installed "Club/Sport" engine mounts 15 years ago. The car is a '73 with stock side-shift trans and cross bar with the hole in it for the trans linkage. But the engine is mounted to the crossbar with solid aluminum blocks and the crossbar is mounted to the chassis with rubber -- similar to the older style tail shift factory mounts -- instead of the inboard rubber+outboard solid mount expected. I'm inclined to return it to stock, but I'm trying to understand the purpose of the "Sport" mounts. Online searches suggest that 911 "Sport Mounts" are used somehow for /6 conversions, but I don't know why PO changed from the stock mount with the factory 2L engine/trans. Thanks for your help. FWIW, pic of my baby is attached.  |
