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 |

What really makes the OEM style mount superior to the bulkhead mount? Agree it's nice to have a look close to factory, but for a car that's a conversion and not a real 914-6, can't see where it would make much difference from a "it'll be worth more" perspective.
Is it easier to install and remove an engine with the factory style OEM mount? The bulkhead mount just looks like it would be superior with two front mount points spread out as opposed to a single centered point for the OEM style. Does the bulkhead mount cause any interference or make access more difficult, or is there some additional work required to install it? |
