ELEVATE C30 Engine Torque Mount

 
The ELEVATE Engine Torque Mount is like an anchor for your drivetrain.  The factory torque mount is made of aluminum and rubber, and has large air gaps which eliminate vibration, and keep the engine/transmission somewhat controlled.  However, these air gaps combined with soft rubber allow significant fore-aft movement of the engine/transmission assembly in relation to the chassis.  This excessive drivetrain movement results in sloppy shifts, wheel hop, slow launches, and the customary “bang” when speed shifting a manual equipped vehicle.
 
ELEVATE has created the perfect solution to controlling drivetrain movement without excessive harshness or vibration at idle (as competitive products do).  We start with our strong, uniquely designed cast 356-T6 heat treated aluminum housing which is precision machined to exact tolerances.  Inside the housing resides our spec polyurethane bushings, which are available in Sport (Black) and optional Race (Blue) versions.  The Engine Torque Mount comes with the Sport (Black) version which is ideal for daily driven use and in most sport driving conditions.  The optional Race (Blue) version is quite firm, and all but eliminates any drivetrain movement.  The Race Bushings are not recommended for daily driven use as significant engine vibration is transmitted to the chassis and would be uncomfortable at idle.  You can change between the two bushings easily.
 
There are other products on the market that replace the factory torque mount.  Our evaluation of each shows a critical error in design—the amount of drivetrain movement allowed or disallowed.  Too much drivetrain movement and you have little benefit over the factory part.  Too little drivetrain movement and you will experience dramatic (and uncomfortable) vibration throughout the chassis.  If this is what you desire for a track event, use our Race (Blue) bushings.  You (and your passenger) will not enjoy the Race bushing if driven on a daily driven basis.  Our design has over twice the amount of suspended area between the center mount and housing compared to the competition.  This allows some movement to eliminate vibration, but controls excessive movement.  Proper durometer calculations of both bushing versions create optimal results.
 
The ELEVATE Engine Torque Mount installs easily in less than twenty minutes and is a direct replacement for the factory component.  Included are thorough instructions, top quality hardware and thread locking compound.
