BEST Torque Damper / Front Motor Mount Set-up

I have searched the forums for a while now, and from what I have found, the Ingalls torque damper everyone seems to like, and every company makes a front motor mount now a days. Now before someone says try searching, i dont need some cupcake comments in this thread. I am trying to find out which combination has found its way around. Any help would be appreciated.

Please if you can, provide where you ordered your set up.

PS
id prefer you only post if you are actually running the combo. I dont care for "here-say" reviews.

thanks guys

the "stiffy" is a band aid

a front motor mount is the real deal

all four motor mounts is the holy grail

vibrations increase with each step

I just bought the new blox front motor mount for 75$. Right after installing it I noticed startup for whatever reason seemed better. Shifting has improved both on up-shifts and down-shifts its just much stiffer all around.

the piece itself is nice. Its billet and you can get it silver or black. Go to the marketplace in look in vendor announcements.

Get the BLOX front engine motor mount replacement. It's great. Just keep in mind when you stiffen up the front, the remaining mounts are going to be under more stress.

+1 for the Blox. Running just the front motor mount. $75 from vendor on here. Definitely made things feel more solid. Pair it with some solid shifter bushings for some crisp shifts.

Speed Element is where you buy it from...check the vendor announcements section. I think that's where the BLOX For Sale thread is.

EDIT: Here's the link: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ve...l-stopper.html
