i am redoing my swap and want to use the 95-98 n boby mount. ive seen some guys here saying they trimed ther mount to make up for the height problem. does any1 have a pic or a little more explenation on were there cuttin them? i cant see were ur taking an inch?

The J-body mount is the one that gets trimmed. Which I don't even think is a problem if you get the mount from QLC.





i find it amusing that SHOoff has nothing better to do but follow me around & be an unhelpful dick in even cross-forum. - Jon Mick

yea thats plan b.

I didnt trim the mount at all when I did mine. I took apart a spare j body mount I had and pulled the metal out of the middle. Cut it down to 3/4" tall and used it as a spacer under the T bracket with longer bolts. Best part is you can still use a prothane upper insert in the mount.

No trimming needed at all w/ my upper from QLC

It is the N body mount that gets trimmed. Lemme see if I can find some pics of when I did it.

You need to trim 3/4 of an inch off it.

After

QLC mounts are nice and reasy but sometimes people prefer wrecker yard shopping

When you learn to search, you'll find out.

ooo. yeah im already talking to him

I think using the stock GAGT mount works best as seen here with mine:









3400 SWAP DONE. 187WHP 212TQ (14.2 @100MPH NA) 240WHP 310TQ (N2O)

thats a 4 cyl one tho isnt it?

No, that's the 3400 mount.

However, I don't know why the stock GAGT mount would work better than one that bolts to that motor, and the stock bracket, with no cutting, drilling, or welding.

Definately upgrade to the WOT-Tech mount, much worth it.

I busted 2 of the 3400 upper mounts. Here is a pic of the last one I took out:



Well worth the money IMO. Feels great, especially after having a broken mount.
