Nobody ever thought of fitting one to a Cossie? Seen it done on various other cars, a solid bar from the engine to the body to stop the engine twisting (well trying to rotate) on its mounts.

Helps torque transfer If engine cant try n turn itself i guess it puts more into the transmission.

Should work like solid engine mounts with regard to handling too.

Seen it done with a small shock absorber type thing but all that does it keep engine still rather than what a solid one would do, as theres less movement rather than none.

Anyone know much about it? As i dont

if you fit real group a ( ) solid engine mounts the engine isnt going anywhere if you think about how the engine i held too the subframe

True. Not many people do tho, most peoples engines are flopping about all over the shop when on the power!

Itsmeagain, tbh the engines dont move much at all,,, im sure wheelspin is prevoked before the engine moves though massive angles

Solid mounts like Spiky's or Group A mounts like mine:



Can't see the point of bracing the engine to the body - shock and vibration if EVERYTHING was solid mounted would be huge!
