Dan Gardner Poly Motor Mounts
These are coming soon off of the DG Spec line-up. These are SIGNIFICANTLY more aggressive than the off the shelf Energy mounts. Stay tuned for pricing and pics!!
ETA 3-4 weeks and will not be too much more (cost wise) than the off the shelf Energy ones.

The compound will be more poly, not like the Energy mounts out now. There will be no billet mount deal like other companies either.
These will be limited to 50 sets like the other DG Spec items.

Guys,
There are three types of "mounts."
1. Inserts
2. Full metal mount portion and rubber/poly/delrin
3. Poly mount that presses into metal stock shell.
Inserts might be the most common. Energy sells them for many vehicles. They are the cheapest, simplest to install, but also the least effective. They fill the "void" area in the stock rubber mount with light polyurethane.
Full metal/rubber/poly/delrin type mounts are extremely expensive. They are the mounts people generally buy when doing a hybrid motor swap...i.e. a B18c in a CRX, for example. It's a whole kit and generally costs a bundle.
Our mounts are full poly that press into the stock metal shells. They are single contiguous pieces with a sleeve or hole for the bolt to go through. The DG-Spec durometer rating that measures hardness is off the scale versus what you can buy over the counter through Energy. They will yield a big, noticeable improvement, and are actually very close in hardness to delrin.
Keep in mind...the trade-off is VIBRATION. If you aren't willing to make that trade-off for performance, these are not for you.
We are producing them in DG-Spec yellow...photos coming soon. And again, in keeping with our business model, these will be limited edition.
