Or run both. Seems like it could do with all the help it can get. :shock:
I’ll run both. Both rigid

I haven’t made the mid mount yet, so needed to mount the transmission, hence the nose mount.

I’ll redo a rubber mid mount, so it bolts to a gusseted plate on the frame horns.

Mine is just solid front, rear, and a Moore Mount in the mid. Broke a hockey stick last season, but that was just cuz I'm super buff :lol:
Never had any other issues with it. I do think I've had some clutch slippage over the years though. I'll probably break the trans in half this season with the new clutch setup :roll:

Yup. 2200cc Bosch
I grabbed some as well. Not sure I'll even be able to get my car to idle with them, but I'll probably give them a shot at some point.

I hope they’ll work fine. If they are lumpy on idle, it’s ok.

It made 399hp and ~550nm (~410ft lbs) to the wheels last time. 10% more would be great!
