Engine movement - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

How much movement is normal for the V6? When power braking in my driveway, I get a pretty substantial amount of movement to the passenger side in drive, and to the driver side in reverse. About a couple of inches in either direction. The mounts do not appear to be cracked and are not leaking fluid. Engine feels solid when parked and trying to move it by hand. I’m thinking about upgrading the mounts (not brackets, obviously) to ZL1 mounts but wanted some input before I start replacing parts.

Thanks!
