if that happened, your other mounts must have been really bad.

i have a 95 civic (has 2 front mounts) i have neither in place and my motor is rock soild.

id say take off the front mount and fill the others with polyeurathane. (write up is in the tech section of the homepage)

Really so ---- the front motor mount? I was pushing and pulling my motor and it wasnt budging when i had it off. i remember my friend who broke it motor mount i could shake his motor.. should i give it a whirl? whats the worse that can happen?

Re:Pics of a motor mount problem im having
 

Just make sure the other mounts are good.

Re:Pics of a motor mount problem im having
 

i'd make a custom mount. that mount will help you put some power to the ground. its what the engine torques back on. when the engine torques (with no mount) it will twist back and ruin your other mounts quicker, not to mention something else. for a long term thing i suggest finding something. using a chain, that u can adjust or something. but i dont know much, so dont take my word for it.

Shaking the engine is not an effective way to check the motor mounts. Put the car in gear (or park) with the e brake off, and rock the car by pushing it by the front bumper... back and forth.

If you have a poor mounts you will notice the engine moving excessively.

Check all your mounts for splitting rubber and cracking... now and in the future.
Think about polyurethane inserts, aswell as fabricating a new mount to aid in supporting your investment...

I have seen a mount let go before... had to replace the mount, and one axle.

can you flip the turbo the otehr way and then just clock the compressor and bearings so the oil return is down?
