Are yall doing anything to the motor to keep it from breaking motor mounts. I have broke a couple while pulling and nick has broke everytime he has hooked to the sled also. Any suggestions??

Still have my originals. I must not be making enough hp to break them. Guess I better turn it up a little :D
I have seen some solid ones built. I really didn't pay attention that close though. I think I remember they were posted onthe DP though.

Now we just have killer torque lol j/k I think my biggest problem was all the strain from high range. I dont no whats wrong with nicks i didnt no if yall where somehow tieing the motor to the frame. Its always the left side we seem to break. :eek:

When you put a new mount in next time put a bolt right through the steel and the rubber, and put a permatorque (pinched) nut on it so it wont come loose.

What about the ones I did at MA for NG? If anyone's interested I'll dig a set out and give you the particulars.;)

I didn't get any pictures. I was still in shock that I was meeting all these people I only read about. I was really blown away I got to work on Erics, Keiths & Landons trucks like they were my own :D I forgot all about pictures, the mounts would have been ok (no offense Rick) but the picture I wish I had was Landon crashing the golf cart INSIDE of Eric's shop. :eek: :D
