Does anyone know the part number and rough price of the standard Ford Exhaust mounts for my 2wd Saff. I fitted the powerflex ones to my Blueflame system and it just doesnt sit right. I never had an issue with the standard ones but have misplaced them since removing them

I'm not sure of the std ford ones number or price wise, but I just get the same shape ones from a exhaust supplier, about £1 each, very common type of mount.

Cheers, I managed to get a full set from ford for a very reasonable £8 It was actually cheap, Im sure i spotted nearly £8 each on the screen before discount.

The fitter at Blueflame seems to think the exhaust is sitting funny because of the poly mounts I fitted. We shall see.

When I recently fitted a powerflex poly mount to the astra mk3 it cut out a LOT of the vibes from the scorpion system from being passed on into the car, but this powerflex poly mount broke after 4 days!!, the 90p each rubber ones last 4-5 months.

fitted the new ford ones this afternoon, and it seems so have helped. Didnt get a chance to drive it, will see what its like tomorrow.

Next purchase is going to be a RS500 Turbo damper. Im running a T34 on a 2wd manifold and the standard damper is fouling the turbo. I fitted a new damper service kit, but still getting some resonance. Cossie's, you gotta love them

Funny, i'm running powerflex mounts on my blueflame system and getting a harsh vibration above 5k, might have to investigate rubber mounts
