Ease of Installation
These mounts are bolt-in style and detailed instructions will guide to an ideal installation. We do recommend a weld be placed on these mounts on the top lip for the best strength achievable.
Strength
The Novak mounts feature thick 3/16" laser cut and CNC bent steel construction. Engineered using a welded box design geometry to provide maximum strength and assure that they will survive even the wildest V8's.
Vibration Isolation
Each mount kit comes with our high-grade urethane isolators that are specified for that ideal balance of isolation and firmness with the power of modern engines. Substantial 5/8" through bolts capture the assembly. Replacement bushing sets are available below should replacement ever be needed.
Compactness
Geometry of the mounts is compact to provide clearance for all stock components including steering shaft with its pillow block and the recommended exhaust headers below.
Engine Mount Finish
As the mounts are usually also welded to the frame, any finish on the frame side brackets as well as the frame would be burned. you may enamel, powder coat or otherwise finish the bracketry and adjacent frame area to your own style. Engine plates are coated in a rust resistant finish but may also be painted.
