73 e body challenger motor mount mods

[Robert Jones]

Has anyone and tips trick to upgrade the stock motor mounts to something that can't tear off? Maybe something tubular like the 80's vollares or a truck mount that can be made to work? I hate the idea of a chain .. wish someone would make a mount like the late 80's vans have. Like this see photo

I usually us a strip of steel flat bar from the block ear bolt to the mount cross bolt , it is virtually invisible & easy to make

even on a hemi barracuda convertible, the OEM mounts were those rubber mounts. presuming they're not cheaply made, they last for decades before failing. generally, only the driver side fails.

that said, there are "solid" motor mount options, out there, if you search.

the solid mounts are a metal brackets without any rubber. they're a tad harsher, because they transfer more engine vibration to the frame. but for maximum performance, these are hard to beat.
