Car Gods were on my side today! Deciding while I had the skid plate off I would attempt to install my Perrin Motor Mounts. It was the last thing I bought before the apocalypse was announced. I delayed doing this because I heard people had issues either having to take off their headers or removing the steering rack just to install these.


I had ZERO problems at all. Only thing I did extra was take off the bolt connecting the front pipe to the transmission mount.


I cut a 5" square of wood and simply jacked it up from the oil pan about 2-3".


While under there found my FP to Overpipe bolt had backed all the way out.


With the ace headers the driver side mount came out from the front, the passenger side came out from the back Easily!
These suckers weight 6lbs


Heres the Perrin mounts, 4lbs with all the hardware.




I know everyone is going to ask about NVH. I haven't driven yet since I still have the front in the air. But I did start it up and didn't notice too much more. I had solid mounts before on other cars that could make your teeth rattle. Plus I Save 2lbs of weight off the front!!

Back down to 2350.5lbs !
