What is the intake you are using? A custom one off?

**rabbit droppings** · 04-09-2012 10:03 AM

Its a carb manifold with a custom intake plate bolted on it.

Hey, nice work!

How come you cut this off:

The rear urethane trans mounts are prone to breaking apart and only leaving the metal parts intact, with no sign of urethane.

poly rear/trans mounts will shake the ever loving isht out of you, and your dash... ask me how i know.

with any diesel, it's important to only run a stock, rubber rear mount. the reason that "they tear" is because they can't handle the vibration from the motor... a solid mount will just make things break... so don't do it.

front mount i'd run stock as well, i'd only spade the cup back about 1/4".

but poly inserts for the side mounts, not a terrible idea.

yea i have poly inserts in the side mounts and i guess ill put the stock front and rear back in.
thank you

don't get me wrong... for a laugh, or to make a lady happy it might be fun to throw a rear poly mount in...

but only for a few minutes.

Best,
