    Why is nobody installing the nelson engine mount?

    Everyone seemed so eager to jump on board. Now there's like 4 for sale in the classifieds and there's no install pictures.

    Because solid mounts are so much cheaper than some massive billet aluminum 7075 mount... That thing is like super expensive...
    Your 1993 Dodge Stealth is one of 6351 that received VIN numbers. Based on the order of the serial numbers, your car was the 5212nd out of the 6351 that were made that year.
    Your car was built in the 3rd week of February 1993. Of the 47380 vehicles made at the Nayoga plant, your car was the 40537th vehicle to be created that year.
    There are 281 other cars that were made with both the same interior and exterior color. There are 779 cars with the same exterior color and 2316 cars with the same interior color.
    Note: The production order is assigned based on the order of the serial number.

    Because as usual, people like to talk big and buy "because race car." And then don't want to put in the effort to actually install it. If I had the cash, I probably would buy and install it and sell my polys.

    because the people serious enough to install them don't go posting around in forums. Scott seems pleased with his.

    I got one but my car is still not ready. It's very light and I am able to have a more complex turbo manifold design because it'll open so much more room. My manifolds will be both facing up instead of one facing up and the other facing down.

    Coop is putting one in. I think he is pretty close to dropping the engine in.

    Not sure how close he is, didn't he get held up due to the powder coating stuff? Was supposed to be done a few days ago on his day off and it wasn't. I am lookin forward to seeing it finished and how he feels about it.
