i'd just fork out the few extra dollars to get new ones. i wouldnt take a chance on those. they look pretty beat up, prob a few years old. hell my mounts are 3 1/2 years old and dont look like that.

i'm using teh mounts he sells and have no problems what so ever. cheap and effective, can't beat that.

 

Me too.Good product and a great guy to deal with.

 

I don't think i've ever really heard of a B-series mount that you didn't have to bang a section of frame for the alternator to clear. If you look closely at a japanese EF Si-R chassis you will notice a neat little notched area for the alternator to clear. Unfortunately USDM ED chassis's don't have this notched area. I used a little 9 pound sledge on mine to make clearance. A little touch up paint and no one will notice anyway.

 

i thinki could have gotten away w/o making the dent. i just would have needed to put the belt on after the engnie was in

 

You probably can get away with no denting the frame...just gonna suck *** when you go to change your alternator belt cause there's not gonna be enough room to get another one on. That's the only big reason i can visually see for whacking in the frame
