They keep the motor from rocking back and forth under acceleration. Meaning, the power gets to the ground faster.

Almost looks like he has poly bushings in those mounts.
They don't look stock.

What trans are you running?  Is it just a built 4T60 or did you modify that too?  I see its an automatic, 60? 80?  Oh yeah and any info on torque converter?

Its been modified but only a wider sprag unit and a different 3rd clutch pack and drum. Third went out 3 or 4 times. 3 times right after the second rebuild. Needs rebuilding again can't put the power to it in 3rd unles it shifts from 2nd at WOT and then it holds.   :roll: When done it will get a 3000 to 3500 stall speed which was planed befor I got the turbo for the turbo. Considered a manual with a slipper clutch but I here they don't shift very well. Guess because they use cables.

:) Doubt very seriously if any of those products would hold up. There black paper backed phenolic discs 2 to an end 8 in total. Made some out of hard wood a couple years ago and one finally split. Didn?t get it tight enough.
