Type 6 (86+ 5.0) Poly Motor Mounts Reply #80 – January 05, 2009, 08:55:01 AM These most likely won't be ready to roll until Feb at the earliest. I don't know how long my laser cutter will take to get caught up after they were closed for the holidays. Quote Selected
Type 6 (86+ 5.0) Poly Motor Mounts Reply #81 – January 08, 2009, 01:37:28 PM Well in that last post I meant laser cutter, not powdercoater (as I'm my powdercoater).Speaking of that, I'm thinking I'm going to powdercoat this batch to see how it goes. I've been unimpressed with my plater the past couple times.What does that mean? Well my stock colors are black or grey, but I might consider custom colors (1 step only...no 2 step) for an extra $20/set. Quote Selected
Type 6 (86+ 5.0) Poly Motor Mounts Reply #82 – January 23, 2009, 01:32:02 PM OK, well my laser cutter was running about a week behind, but I'll have parts in my hands next week and will be able to start welding. Only have 1 confirmed order for some of the 5.0 mounts. Quote Selected

Type 6 (86+ 5.0) Poly Motor Mounts Reply #84 – January 29, 2009, 09:49:45 PM Just going to add, these are nice mounts. The hard bushings are more like hard plastic than rubber though (they are rubbery but I can't seem to much much of a dent in them than I can with the softer ones) - good thing I got 2 other pairs (spares) of the "softer" ones to use. Just a heads up for anyone ordering.As for how they both absorb vibrations, no idea. I put the "soft" ones in and haven't looked back. I think I feel slightly more engine vibration than the stock hydraulics, but nothing really noticeable. Quote Selected
Type 6 (86+ 5.0) Poly Motor Mounts Reply #85 – January 29, 2009, 10:35:57 PM The bushings are polyurethane, not rubber The stiff are a 70A. The current soft ones are a 70A/45A combo. They are being replaced with a 70A/55A combo from this point onward though.The vibrations all depend on the engine really. Each one is a bit different. Also, what one person finds "acceptable", the next would find "unbearable". Quote Selected

Type 6 (86+ 5.0) Poly Motor Mounts Reply #88 – February 01, 2009, 09:39:25 AM A couple things.One, they aren't too good with their quality control and I get some mediocre-looking parts from them. I used to get great stuff from them, but I think they are cutting corners these days.Two, they have a minimum which with my smaller batches I rarely meet any more, and thus am paying quite a bit more than I should.This allows me to keep things more fluid, control the quality, and be better able to keep small quantities of product on hand.

got mine! Reply #89 – February 19, 2009, 07:08:17 PM Look at the nice surprise I got in the mail today! :D :D Looks like I won't have to worry about bustin' any more motor mounts. Thanks Chuck! They look great, can't wait to put them into use with my new 5.0 HO. Quote Selected
