Re: Question On Stock Motor Mounts

It depends on the style your set up uses but that’s about right for standard small block mounts with out retainers the clam shell type are the most expensive.

Argue all you want, but an engine can be called a motor, but a motor can not be an engine.
That is why we have MOTORsports, MOTORcycles...ect.
Acording to this online dictionary

Oh yeah, some of the motor mounts are cheap, but if you were to price 68 - 71 big block motor mounts, you'd crap yourself.
