  • Update on tranny mount...good news...kinda!

    A little update on the tranny mount, I ordered one from tbyrne motorsports, and finally got it in...only to find that it doesn't fit...so I call autozone and they have the same Energy Suspension tranny mount as me and it obviously will not fit either...so I get the moron to look it up for a camaro, it is the same mount!!! Duh right, but under it,there is a comment..."CROSSMEMBER MODIFICATION REQUIRED FOR THIS TRANNY MOUNT" No kidding, I could have mad it fit, just wanted a direct bolt in! So, I dropped the crossmember and broke out the dremel tool...elongated the hole in the crossmember about 1-1.5 inches and voila, it works great...besides the fact that you can really feel the transmission under there as you give it gas! Overall, the tranny is super sturdy now and you can feel more torque to the ground...honestly! Just a pain to have to do this crossmember mod! Just a little fyi!

    Yeup. Must elongate the hole.

    The vibrations will be terrible for the first few days but over time it will get better.
