Hi Guys
I need to choose an engine mount for my conversion. Any pros and cons of which type to go for? I understand height on install is an issue to get a good air seal to avoid overheating issues Thanks |

Pros and cons please. I’m not bothered about originality [/quote] What size motor? I agree with the Doctor. Dual mounts according to Rich Johnson has less vibration than a single mount. The PMS tilting dual mount, has the advantage of trackside access to the engine. I have a Rich Johnson mount that I have used with a 2.7, 3,2 and future 3.6. Works great! |
