who had a problem? my motor moves but i dont consider it a problem. its been like that for a year now, and the motor is still in the engine bay. i didnt do anything to compensate...when i swap a new motor in sometime ill do the mounts

[90_accord_dx]

i didnt mean problems exactly.. i ment the motor moving.. so tecnically is allright for ur motor to move.. r33... have u raced at all with the motor like that??? or i mean even get on it hard?

when iwas talking to my mechanic whos gonnna help me do the turbo and let me use his garage to do it. he said that i am retarded for wanting to take out the front motor mount . said that he will try to make motor mount that would fit under the compressor and if that doesnt work fill my other ones and tie the engine down using chains like they do for muscle cars they build in his shop.

my dad keeps telling me when I take off the front mount to tie a chain from it to the block. Says he used to do it on his AMX and corvette.

so is it possible to just weld the mount to the block?

No...two different types of metal....

hey fushigi, when do you guys plan on coming out with the front mount relocator?

Very soon...we are working out a few issues.....

What i did was cut the motor mount in half and weld the lower have to the very end on the metel braket on the block and used the same mount on the crossmember I also belive distrubingbehavior did this. Works great one of the best mods i have ever done.

I think I'm just gonna fill the side mounts for now, and take it easy. then get the front mount relocator... I hate doing custom fabrication.

Its best to have a mount in the front, although not necessary. The motor surges towards the back of the car when it makes torque, so the rear and side mounts will take more abuse. I would fill em with urethane, its really easy. How far are you along with this project? Hit me up with a PM, lets talk sometime.
