Motor Mounts

I'm replacing my motor mounts..any benefits of using Float a motor or should I stay with the originals ?

Wow, this must be whip the dead horse day. People either love 'em or hate 'em, and they present theory, testimony, and conjecture both ways. Put "Float a motor" in the search (black bar above) and watch the re-runs of many bouts.

they work, they will remove almost all viberation that is transfered from the engine to the frame and body, makes for a very smooth ride, some say that using them weakens the frame integerty, but on the other hand using the stock ones puts a lot of stress on the block, they are bolted directly from the engine to frame with a lot of viberation, ive used them and found them to be very pleasant , but if you tighten the float a motor rubber bisquits to tight they will feel like solid motor mounts, if you have a set try them and then decied for your self, but be prepared for the original nuts to jump all over you for just even thinking about using them

If you use them, put some flex hose in the fuel line to eliminate possibility of breaking or cracking that line.
