Engine/gear mounts gen3
Discussion
Does anyone have a parts list for a refresh of engine, gearbox and diff mounts for a gen 3 SRT10?
I'd like to tighten up the feel of the drivetrain on mine. I know these cars aren't the last word in drivetrain refinement, but after 16 years (and 38k miles!), I'd like to have a go at making mine as good as it can be. There's also a fair bit of drivetrain shunt/backlash, but I believe some is to be expected...?
Disclaimer: I'm not massively mechanically minded - although I do have a very good garage nearby who specialise in kit cars/TVRs/imported stuff, and are OK with me turning up with a box of bits and a crate of beer...

Sonicbloo - that's really helpful - thanks for the detailed post.
I'll get those ordered. I'll also see if I can find the part numbers for the gearbox mount(s) and diff mount (if there is such a thing) and post on here.
I'm sure the car could be a little tighter, but I read a review of this model of Viper from an American site a while back and they mentioned how 'uncouth' it was in traffic, bucking and snorting! It gives the car character!
