I know that they were saying it takes around 24 hours to cure. So you would have your engine unbolted on jack stands for a day. Personally I would rather buy a set from the junk yard and fill those. Then just do a swapout.

I have heard of this mod before.. anybody done it? I am interested, but I agree that 48 hours is a LONG time to leave my car laid up.. Using junkyard or even new parts sounds a lot less time consuming.

New parts would end up running you around $300. I checked into that already. Your best bet is getting parts from a junkyard.

how solid is the mount now? i am thinking of doing that first idea with the liquid instead of the 3m window seal.
i have my motor out now so it would be the perfect time to do this.
i wonder if i used some sort of torque bar instead of sealing the mounts. i would still get the vibration but it would only happen when i race.
i am thinking of some sort of adjustable torque bar to stop the rocking of the engine and perhaps stop wheel hop. then when your done racing, just adjust it so that the engine can rock a little and you wont get the vibration all the time.
hmmmmm. my brain is gonna start smoking in a min.
