ams makes very nice solid mounts. then ebay has the rear solid mount (the one above the steering gear) pretty cheap but effective non the less

Impressive build!

Make sure you don't use your old oil cooler if that oil cooler was connected to a damaged engine.

I use Denso IW plugs.

BTW what is the fastest Evo in Trinidad in 1/4 mile?

What are you going to use for tires in the 1/4 mile?

Uh... this is going to sound a little harsh, but I presume you did all this research on your 700whp motor build.... you can't figure out the simipliest details such as spark plugs and mounts? There's a lot less involved in the decision process choosing those than pretty much everything else you bought.

^not really..
Motor mounts are a huge thing! Just like bushings..
they can determine your shifts and even better your 60ft times...

they're not that simple

the fastest evo was my last one 11.3 @125mph..

The fastest car now though is a R32 skyline that ran 10.08 last weekend
Not many people are building evos here

Tires ...I'm going with 15x7rims and Hoosier Quick time Pros...
