God damn, I took at stab at the dr. side mount tonight and the 4 bolts that hold the mount to the block were tight as hell. I could only get enough leverage on 2 of the bolts to break them free. No way in hell were the other two coming loose. Is there anything else that needs to be removed on the dr. side other than the alternator to give more room??

I got my car back yesterday from having the Prothane poly motor mounts put in at the place that does all my mod work. I ordered them because the stock mounts were not able to handle the torque of the engine after pacesetter LT's and catted Y pipe install. there was banging taking place when car was run at WOT. I had read on another thread that some people had used these mounts to stabalize the engine. I am here to testify that they were right. No more banging and everything feels much more stable under the hood. They are a bitch to mount, but worth the time, money and effort. Word to the wise, mount these before any header and Y pipe install. Will save you headaches, time and effort.

Poly Motor Mounts in an A4
Digging up an old thread!
I would like some peoples opinions with how much vibrations there are with Poly motor mounts paired with rubber trans mount on an A4 LS1 F-Body.
If you do not have this set up or have driven a car with this set up please don't reply.
The reason I am thinking of doing mounts on my car is I am installing ARH Long Tubes and Y pipe and the car is 14 years old with the original engine mounts; though, it only has 13K miles.
