Hey all another prob with my wags thats ive had ever since i replaced my engine and gearbox mounts. the motor lifts ALOT.. whenever i rev it. I gotunder it today whilst it was getting reved and it doesnt seem to be sagging the engine mounts much so what could my prob be. Ive checked to make sure all the bolts are really tight and stuff so yeah..

Any help appreciated.

missus (in more ways than one)
i owuldnt worry to much dude, i mean when i rev my motor the thing wants to roll it self out of the car, and if the mounts are new and the k frame isnt snapped/ broken it should be right

Could be some flex in the crossmember/engine mounts/whatever. As long as it doesn't smack into anything and everythings tight ya should be fine I reckon. Keep an eye on the mounts/K-frame to make sure they're all cool tho, coz nothing says DANG like an engine falling out at the most embarrasing possible time.

Enjoy it mate...nothing nicer than to pull up next to a rice-mobile and give the engine a quick rev only to have the entire car rock. Scares crap out of people who don't know what's going on just seeing an old commodore sitting there rocking at the line.
