check prices first!not much difference iirc

uprated mounts also help reduce the engine movement,which prevents shaft popping out,not 100% but pretty sure they allow the engine to sit a tad lower in the bay,to keep the shafts straighter....aswell as replacing the std ones which WILL be split! jack under sump,and they seperate....

ive never broken a std length shaft with uprated mounts at 380bhp,where as with std mounts and 330 bhp it was weekly!
