I have a set of the V8 engine mounts for the Rover/Buick engine, they are from D&D and includes both the metal bracket and the heavy duty rubber mounts. Paid $100 for them, asking $80.

Feel free to make an offer, trying to clear out the garage.

Michelle,

Since you're selling these, what did you use on your car? Are these the mounts that lower the engine enough to get it all under a stock hood?

Cheers
Simon

Hi Simon,

Actually sold these and was coming to post up a reply. These were the ones from D&D, the ones I used were from Glen and lowered the engine about 1/2" lower than these based on my guess.

Thanks Michelle. I checked with Chris Gill as he's using the same mounts as you had. He said they do lower the engine and move it back a bit. Good news on the sale.

Cheers
Simon
