Yeah, it must be hard with all that's going on. I'm pleased to see bio is waiting for the redone v2 mount. I think bio's satisfaction with the product will be the gateway for you guys. He documents, reviews, and works with you guys which is extremely nice of him. Depending on his results and the satisfaction of others, you may have a winner on your hands simply because of your attractive pricing and comfort compared to other products.

What Tru-boost says I agree with. Even if the mount is BRILLIANTLY engineered, the bushing will eventually wear down. Depending on the bushing material of course.

Density and grade of material means all the difference in the world.

3rd time is a charm :-)
Got the new passenger side mount w/ the red inserts...
Didn't torque the bolt that was already on the mount, left it just like it was.
I read in another post its already pre-tighten'd to specs so all you do is put it in and go.

Everything fit perfectly and so far everything feels great!
I have to thank one of my friends Chuck (Firehawk93) for helping me since he's got air.

You will need help with the install, support the engine with jack and then have someone push forward on the engine to have the holes line up as you re-thread the bolts back in to the frame.

Also have to re-route ground wire to a new location.
We found a bolt on the block nearby and used that.

I got my passenger and tranny mount on friday and installed them that night. Things seem to fit perfect, tranny took some work to get everything aligned as the engine decided it wanted to lean forward. Car shifts incredibly smooth. The vibration isn't too bad, however there is an odd sound coming from the driverside which I think may just be the transmission. I drove it for almost 200 miles to a car meet and back with no issues so i'm assuming the the noise is nothing to worry about. It only seems to be audible at low RPMs so I think it might almost just be the sound of the gears spinning. The battery looked like it would be titled when i bolted it back up, but there doesn't seem to be any rub on my inlet.

The noise you're hearing is you throw out bearing, it's a totally normal noise when using a stiffer transmission mount
