I need to reduce the rock of the G60 motor (16v actually) in a Corrado.
What are my options and what do people recommend?

Makes sense if the 2 rear ones allow too much rocking...
quote:[HR][/HR]Plus, don't the solid ones usually end up breaking the mount bracket, since they are too stiff? Just something I've heard. . . .

Can anyone confirm this?-Nate[HR][/HR]

Well Jerome, I haven't really thought about the mounts or researched any of the products available, but the BBM one looks like a decent one and the price looks pretty good too...

Re: Motor Mount options and opinions. (corrado2z2)
My thoughts were the same...
the BBM one would prolly work better for the long haul...
Solid mounts are gonna shake the bejeezus out of you on those
cold nights we experience up here

I had 3 poly mounts on my Scirocco and anything below 10 deg
was like being in a ride at the circus. BuzzZZzzzZZzzzzzzz
Ahhh my arms!!!

Re: Motor Mount options and opinions. (SSj4G60)
i have a vibratechnics and it is really good, but the only downside( and i am wondering if this is just from it being solid) is breaking the mount above it. it was being run really hard (racin' a porsche

I have vibratechnics too and they are great. They are hard but do not buzz like some poly ones I have tried.
Also, the vibratechnis are NOT 100% solid. They have an aluminum base with a rubber insert. This insert allows for minimal movement to avoid breaking brackets and keep the car from buzzing.
If your front mount broke, it is probably due to the fact that your 10 year old bracket got weakened at the time when your stock mount was bad. It happened to me too. Replaced with new bracket about 1.5 years ago and had no problems since.
