This may have been posted already, but I did a search and came up with nada! We all know that when you install the Kirkosaurus Engine Mounts, the vibration of the car at idle is increased due to the engine mounts being much more stiff. That's not what this topic is about. What I would like to know is does the vibration reduce after a while? Perhaps the mounts need breaking in and continues to shake the life out of my steering wheel until it breaks in? I know a lot of people say a little bit more vibration is added, but my type of vibration is CRAZY! It feels like I'm holding a jackhammer when I'm holding the steering wheel. Only at idle though, while driving and the rpm's are above 1500 it's pure beautiful!
-Thanks in advance for all the info, Ryan |

These mounts are awesome. I have them in both my race cars and they drastically reduce engine movement and im racing off road so everything is being jarred to hell and back. The only downside is installing the rear one. It can be a real pain in the A.
If you notch the rear motor mount a little it makes the job really easy as you gain more clearance. Thank you Mr. Plasma cutter. |
