Are solid steel motor mounts bad?????

[CRXsk8er]

My mouter mounts are bad and i want to weld my own mounts out of steel tubing. Will it twist my frame or chasis?

Theoretically solid motor mounts will reduce the amount of movement the motor makes under hard acceleration, that can rob some power.

The reality of the fact is it will cause you car to be very rough, and cause unbearably bad vibration to you and your passengers. Because there is not absorption happening though the motor mount, its all going right into he car.

What Hi-Flow said is true. If you really want solid motor mounts to try to aqueeze every bit of power to the wheels but on a street car. A popular thing to do is use solid steel motor mounts and a polyurethane tranny mount instead of a solid 1 to help absorb some of the vibration. But you will be changing ya tranny mount often cause it does tear them up.

Solids arn't that bad I ran HPM 3/4" drop solids in my car and it was fine for a weekend car/occasionally driving it to work car.
