For sale: LS1 fbody clam shell motor mounts

Since I swapped a pair of poly mounts onto my car tonight I'm gonna sell the ones I removed. There's nothing wrong with them, it's just that because of the big cam in my motor the exhaust was hitting the floor and I wanted to try and get rid of that. These would be great for someone going for a mild build without a lopey cam.

I painted them black right before I put them on my car, which was about 1,000 miles ago.

$40 shipped.

So, this is the actual steel mount and not just the insert that mounts to the engine? If that is what you mean I am interested

Re: For sale: LS1 fbody clam shell motor mounts

Blue,
Did you have a spare set of clamshells that you swapped the poly mounts into, or did you find a place that sells them complete? I just picked up a set of OEM rubber clamshells under the assumption that I need the steel shell to put the new poly mounts into. I'm just second-guessing if my assumption was correct.

Correct this is the whole mount (clamshell and rubber insert).


Jim, I bought my new mounts with the poly bushings already installed. So yea I actually have two sets, these and the new ones. I figured it would be more convenient to buy some complete ones instead of taking mine off the car and taking them apart to put in the bushings before I installed them.

Re: For sale: LS1 fbody clam shell motor mounts

Was that somebody's unused upgrade, or does somebody offer them for sale complete?

If it's cost effective, I'd consider reselling my clamshells and buying them complete.

Re: For sale: LS1 fbody clam shell motor mounts

Sorry I should have clarified. These were used clamshells with new bushings. I don't know of anyone that sells them assembled brand new.
