Solid Motor Mounts with aftermarket K-member...
What are you guys using?? From what I have been told noone makes any solid mounts for use with an aftermarket kmember.. Why is this?? I really don't want to make any, but if thats what I have to do then so be it. I just don't understand why they would make solid mounts for the stock kmember, but nothing for the aftermarkets.. Hopefully someone makes something and I just haven't found it yet..
Thanks for the input!

Well Steve that was the plan.. But as we all know THINGS NEVER GO AS PLANNED!!! I am running a carbed LSX setup and neither of my motor plates will fit around my new GMPP timing cover worth a damn, so I was going to go with the solid mounts instead. My water pump bolts are about a mile long now also so I didn't really trust them to hold the engine up.

I have two motor plates here one of them being a MadMan plate, but it won't clear. I could have done some trimming on them, but it would be awfully close to the water pump ports.. I already painted my engine bay and got it lookin pretty so can't go back with plates now..

BMR K-MEMBER IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT THAN SPOHN, PA Racing, ETC ETC.. Look at the pic that I posted of the BMR Kmember.. The SPOHN solid mounts WILL NOT WORK!!!!!!! I have a set of the spohn solid mounts on the shelf and they work on their kmember or any kmember that has stock style engine mounts NOT the BMR. Jesus.
