[QUOTE="Catmonkey, post: 16685242, member: 124025"] Poly engine mounts will do the same thing as bolting that monstrosity to the bell housing. The problem is the liquid filled engine mounts allowing too much engine movement under torque. Replacing them with poly eliminates that issue. I don't really trust putting a lateral load on bell housing bolt holes in an aluminum block. You will get some engine vibration going that route too. I have ARH on my car and while I think you could pull the transmission without removing them, I did not do that. I removed the driver side header because I needed to remove the oil cooler/filter adapter for some other engine work that required taking the front timing cover off. I had already changed the clutch, I just changed to a later 2013 transmission. I think if you're going to install long tubes, just don't put cats on it, if no one is inspecting the car for such. It's still illegal to do that, but if there is no enforcement, why go through the expense. Be forewarned, the car will be super loud. [/QUOTE]
