Default spohn solid mms

any one run these with a stock k member? i want to get these but ive read that you will need a spohn k and the motor will sit higher. dont care about the drivability stuff, just dont want to have any issues with clearance or not fitting. input apriciated kinda need new mounts

Save on weight and labor and do the k-member also.

Are there any good write ups on K-member replacement? I did a quick google search and didn't find anything.

k is like 5 bills tho, still gotta pay bills lol. i just want to be able to take off from a left arrow and not have the headers hit the steering knuckle. did any of you notice if your intake was closer to your cowl i read it moves your motor up a bit

The PA racing K-member is cheaper and a nice piece.

Also running SMM's no issues... no header bang on floor or steering shaft... I would make the same choice again

you can put some poly mounts in or space the K member pedestal up before going to a solid mount.
