1962 Chevrolet Corvette Performance Engine and Transmission Mounts

Mr. Gasket Solid Steel Motor Mounts are recommended only for competition applications. This .180 inch thick, zinc dichromate plated solid mounts do not have the flexing present in rubber or even polyurethane engine mounts. This prevents lateral engine movement or twisting in high horsepower and torque applications. Nor will steel mounts break as easily as stock rubber mounts can. Engine movement in applications like this can cause contact of engine components into places they do not need to be (like headers hitting the frame of the car). Also engine twisting can cause severe drivetrain misalignment affecting shifting or even power transmission to the ground. However, without the insulative effect of rubber, vibration can be substantial and thus solid mounts are not recommended for the street.

A true performance application component for cars, trucks, hot rods and racing/competition vehicles – yet designed to be also used for street vehicles. Soft-running enough to absorb vibrations for street use yet rugged for racing use. When required- a torque resistant safety interlock design is used that is comparable in strength to those too hard-running metal mounts. Replaces the original, short lived and typically too-soft rubber mounts and outdates those hard-running metal motor mounts. The popular early style mounts for General Motors vehicles are available in either zinc or chrome metal finishes. Made of Hyper-Flex performance polyurethane. Resistant to under vehicle fluids such as: oils, coolants, road contaminants, etc.
