    Innovative Motor Mount Question

    Hey everyone. I ordered my Innovative Motor Mounts from swapshopracing.com and very pleased with the quality of the mounts. I got them very fast and got helpful service from Brian. I have an issue regarding the motor mount and how its positioned next to the stud. Its VERY close. I am worried about clearance of the stud and how it will connect to the frame of the car that bolts the mount through. Pictures below can show you what I am talking about.





    My question is to anyone who has these mounts, is this normal and do you have to do a special technique to mount the motor in the car? To me this does seem right and it's very tight and looks like it would rub against the metal frame of the car that holds the mount.

    Any info would be great. Thanks.

      you can trim off some of the bolt there. but make sure you put the nut on before cutting.

        That thing is huge. Cut the studs down and bevel them, if not you'll gal the threads and thats never fun.

          I appreciate it. I knew it was going to be close, but not this close. I'll probably end up trimming the stud down a bit and figure out a different way to place the mount in the car while bolting to the engine. It just looks extremely tight.

            That does look very tight, I filled a tranny mount w/ 94a and it ended up being sorta like that, had to shave the urethane back alittle bit.

              The thing is, I don't want to shave anything off the mount. Suckers were not cheap. This mount is an alternative instead of drilling and tapping the tranny. I guess I will just have to see when the time comes during the swap of what will be the best option. I'm leaning towards trimming down the stud a bit, but leave enough to bolt down good and secure.

                  I'm curious about engine vibrations with these. I'll give my ESPs 1000 miles to break in and if they dont soften up by then I'm getting mounts with a softer polyurethane.

                      Bearable, but everything in the car is vibrating. Taking bumps at any speed isn't pretty.
