Heater63,
Thanks for your effort. It is greatly appreciated!
I'm convinced, I ordered an Energy Suspension rear mount.

g.m. dude and Radar

If I were mostly stock with my 250 (sub 200 ft/lbs of torque), then I would be fine with not using the tailshaft mount. I've read on multiple locations though that my T5 is rated for 265 ft/lbs. I believe that I'm near 250 ft/lbs give or take some. My engine is very similar to one of the T Lowe dyno runs and his engine, with the similar setup, made 258 ft/lbs on the test. (T Lowe's dyno setup had the same head - lump 1.84I/1.60E, the carb, intake & exh - 390 Holley, Offy 4 barrel, Langdon cast iron, cam lift and duration almost exactly the same, but he had .5 more compression. THANKS TOM LOWE)
Based on the dyno run and T5 info, I was concerned. Thanks for your input. All advise and experience is always appreciated.


If at first you don't succeed,
then read the directions and try again.
