$180 was the cheapest I could find a mount for anywhere. Making your own is definitely the way to go. If your making enough power to rip the stock mount than you shouldnt care about solid mount vibrations.

Put the lower torque mount back on, and it won't break.


Stock mounts are not designed to hold that side of the engine on it's own. That's why the torque mounts are there to begin with.


But all the idiots out there take them off, cause it's cool or some dumb ----.
