Engine Torque Stiffy

**Stone** · 01-20-2009, 03:22 AM

Man....i just bought and installed the SCSS Race Motor Mounts. They made a HUGE difference though

Yup.....any way you kill the engine torquing counter clockwise will improve getting the power to the ground quicker no doubt. However you do it.

Wonder how my graph curve would look now?

**Sarge** · 01-20-2009, 07:14 AM

I dunno...

Think I'll give this a try and see what happens, If nothing else at last it should relieve some stress on the drivetrain.

Tires will prob spin more freely, lol.

Lucky you, haha. In this weather my rears break and the T/C activates. Even on dry road. Tq comes up fast. And I don't try to break the rears loose at all. I guess that is the way these cars are built.

Also why remove the battery? Ingalls site shows it installed with the battery in place. My question would be my catch can is mounted there. http://www.ingallseng.com/parts/ETD/93031.htm

where did you find it for that lower price??

Depends on if Sarge will banish me for posting non-sponsor links...which is why I didn't post that to begin with. I guessing if you can post tits here that links have got to be ok. lol
