Motor Mounts? To Upgrade Or Not?
I will be pulling my stock LS3 for forging in the following weeks and considering replacing my stock motor mounts with one of the three following options.
- Stock SS Motor mounts - Stock ZL1 Motor mount - BMR motor mounts Would like to hear what everyone is using as well as your thoughts on the matter. |

I'm about to pull my SS mounts in favor of a set ZL1 mounts stiffer then SS without the NVH of a solid mount.

Motor Mounts? To Upgrade Or Not?
I have BMR poly engine mounts. Have had them on for a while now. I wish I would have gotten the solid mount inserts instead of the poly. I can always upgrade the inserts in the future though.

I have the torque solution solid mounts... they are awesome. Tightened everything up nicely.

Yes, the ZL1 - Z/28 mounts were designed for track use (and the heavier supercharger in the case of the ZL1). The supercharger + lid weight 80 lbs more (vs the LS3 intake).
No noise/vibration added and zero issues - and I do track with those... -Don

Yeah a little more vibration at idle. If you go with solid ones I’m sure that would increase the vibration noise
