I'm thinking of building some solid mounts for my converstion and I'd like to know if there would be any problems. I see alot of people here using them on street cars. I always thought they were meant for race only.

when you go to try to drop your tranny or replace anything to do with the tranny the solid motor mounts dont allow the engine to swivel like you need it to.

you'll be able to hear and feel everything...don't really think it's a disadvantage, but some might i guess...

There is no additional noise. The car shakes just a bit more with the motor. If you loosen the rear 2 bolts for the K-member you can get to all of the tranny bolts .
What are you swapping into??

I beg to differ. My H/C makes a lot of extra noise. It doesn't bother me, but it's there. Listening to CD's is pretty much a thing of the past.

I myself would love to do a solid setup motor does seem to move alot, I read a post about that it takes 5 to 6 hours to do all 3. Is that with a lift or without a lift?

There are only 2 motor mounts, I am guessing you're including the trans mounts too.

I did my motor mounts on a lift with air tools in about 2.5 hours. It really is not a difficult install. I find myself saying that a lot after I installed mine but it's true. Everyone on here says it's a killer job, which I can understand, but it was really quite easy. Once the alternator and compressor are out of the way they're easy to get to.
