True solid trans mount? - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

This finally arrived after 3 months on backorder. Its from Prothane and has a poly insert, its the closest I could come to a true solid. This paired with my BMR solids should be interesting.

Wow, that's gonna make it tight!! lol.

Looks good. Should get that last little bit of tightness youre after

1JEWLDSSRS · 08-25-2021, 05:36 PM

And the shakes, rattles and rolls!! lol.

Chris49066SS · 08-26-2021, 08:03 PM

Thanks guys, yeah I am hoping to really tighten things up. I also have delrin UCA bushings (the bracket replacement style) waiting to accompany it.

I have a poly trans mount in and noise isn’t bad and shifts are a lot nicer

Just following up with this post. I have the BMR solid motor mounts and the Prothane trans mount, and the car feels tight! There is a noticeable amount of vibration but it isn't bad at all, it gives it a more raw and tighter feeling. Shifts feel firmer. Still very driveable!

I am understanding correctly that this was basically a one-off piece? Do they plan on releasing this to the masses?

I’ve got the Torque Soultions solid engine mounts and my 1LE trans mount with a revshift insert. It’s part of my new engine build so I don’t know how they’ll feel together, but bring on the NVH

Heck yeah Wayne!

Fabricating a trans mount yourself won't be too hard if you want to go completely solid. I only did the Revmax insert and it definitely makes a huge difference.

I didn't get around to it but wish I did. People made things seem way harsher than it ended up, but I think the Prothane piece will be sufficient enough till a TH400 goes in. No complaints here

No disrespect whatsoever, but that seems exceptionally overpriced for a chunk of aluminum and thin square of poly, neither of which need to be exceptionally precise.

Yeah the price jumped from what it was in the past too, when I first saw it, it was like low $200s, then jumped to 242, then 270. Right now they ship at the end of july if you order it now, its crazy
