Metzeler engine mounts?

[Alexdaredevilz]

Where can I get a pair, went through 3 'made in the uk' ones on one side whilst the metzeler kept going, so im after a pair

[Bassfiend]

Just been shown that mine are fooked too...

(But I suspect that mine may well be the original ones. )

[Bassfiend]

Clever Trevor have engine mounts at £30 each inc VAT and Racing Green have them at £42 each inc VAT ... Aren't they now the same stock of parts running from the same premesis?

[Bassfiend]

Eventually decided to go for the SC Power ones...

[Alexdaredevilz]

I think I will to

I did as they told me their new compound won't melt under any conditions I could throw at them, that's after I had two pairs melt on me!
Also added some heat shields just for belt and braces

heat shields on the SC engine mount retainers good idea, mine started to melt a few days after fitting them, they are so close to the manifolds so i wrapped some fiberglass heat mat around them with a wire retainer, PITA to do but been Ok since.

Well - mine will be warrantied so I'm not too worried ...

Oh man! Just been and picked the old girl up - my old mounts were ripped to hell!

One was completely torn all the way round and the other was split ... I wonder if that was why she's been "jerking" recently on a very light throttle as she definitely wasn't this evening on the way home.

What are these the sc ones that have failed ?.

I had an older 3 years or so old that melted it was the black compound, the new compound is supposed to be bomb proof

[Bassfiend]

Well let's see ... Have to say that my old ones were sooooooooo fooked it was scary!

When I bought mine they told me they only have one compound now and it's a dark greyish colour, so these are probably not the latest ones

[Simon says]

Yes they are the grey may be SP6 but the red are for the RV8 and def the latest spec
