Of course I am sure everyone has there opinion and this is just been my experience with the BMR never had anyone want any other type around here. I have installed them a few different ways but I have done it just like BLT FED with the exception I used a floor jack under the oil pan with a 2x12 under it and I have used the engine hoist too. They all work and I know you said not to leave this to the weekend warriors but Black Beasst did it and if he can any one can with a little time JMO? Good luck to everyone installing K-members and if you need them installed in the Houston area let me know I can do it or anything else for that matter. Seeya!!!!!!!

I, being the owner of a 94 3.4 
and still piecing together the last pieces of my LS1 conversion, was totally shocked at the size of the huge motor mounts when they arrived this weekend. I thought to myself "Couldnt I fabricate an aluminum or tubular version of these mounts?"

I'm seriously considering on of these for header clearance/weight savings. I am concerned about using it on a daily driver. Are there any cons in using it for this application, or is this more of a "race-only" mod?
