Hello, Below is a link to our lightweight aluminum motor mounts. These bolt into the factory K-member and many aftermarket K-members.

UMI Aluminum Solid Motor Mounts

If you have any questions please ask. Thank you!

The (auto) trans will not fall down in the back if you have solids. I had to lift the body off the k member to reach the bolts and drop my tranny recently. Not very much fun.

Do the umi aluminum mounts raise the motor any? At a certain power level would one have to worry about the mounts? I assume the answer is no but thought I'd ask.

I beleive that only the spohns raise the motor (1"). I think all the others are straight replacements.
