Default Got my solid motor mounts put in yesterday and...

Yup I got my solid motor mounts inyesterday took about 2 1/2 hours.. Then I went for a test drive and guess what... Low and behold I turn off of my street and start going down the road and I get pulled over by a state trooper. He pulled me over for not having a front plate. So he gave me a ticket for not wearing my seat belt and then he gave me a warning for not having a front plate and loud exhaust.. Then while hes giving me the ticket he asks "Is this the LT1 or LS1?" LOL....Also took a pic

After a cop pulled me over for "excessive speed in changing lanes" - he wanted to BS about HIS Camaro - Yeah, they ALL suck!

I'm going to install mine in my '97 SS this weekend. EVERYTHING else is poly or rod ended, so I'm not concerned about any additional vibration, lol.

Actually the vibration isnt that bad... I mean it is a little bad when your letting off the clutch and the rpm's drop below 850 rpms but I LOVE them. I like looking in my side mirrors and cant see anything due to them shaking lol

How do you take a 99x74 pixel picture? Is your phone from 1989?

^ That it is tiny, look at it. I thought it was a link to something and then realized it was one of the smallest pictures I've ever seen posted. To see the size all you do is right click on the picture and then properties.

On topic. Are your mirrors shaking from the engine or are they internally damaged? The driver's side one in my 95 shakes when I idle and that is a V6 car. The passenger side one sits perfectly still.

Damn near spit out my captain and coke. I think he just used the thumbnail link to embed it instead of the files direct link. Either that or he has a snazzy windows icon generator on his cell .

I'm going to have to disagree... My computer shows 98x73 so I would say maybe it was an 88'…
