Q – On my early 911 I installed the WEVO semi solid motor and transmission mounts. Now my wife is asking me what is wrong with the car. Do you know anyone who might want to buy some good used mounts! I am going back to rubber. – Charles

A – I have done this too. Sometimes a product sounds much better in a catalog than it is. For every action there is a reaction. The added vibration in the car would not be worth it to me unless it is a track only car. I recently drove a Turbo with solid mounts and I had to wear ear muffs. I think I heard and felt every moving part in the entire engine and transaxle. If you have ever driven or ridden in a proper race car, you know what I mean.

For the street, compromises are made for good reasons. If it were my choice of mounts, I would suggest the Club Sport mounts that are harder without being ridiculous. The fit and look just like standard mounts so they are not as sexy to as the Wevo mounts but your teeth and passengers will thank you. – MC
