[QUOTE="Bad Company, post: 15277081, member: 141815"] LOL......most of the time I feel my comments are that of a condemned man taking his last meal before sitting in the hot seat. Especially since I've been shutdown recently for saying something that was truthful about a particular engine failure and the time line of that failure. Too bad that event doesn't publish the complete results in the manner wannaGoFast does Sir Isaac Newton's Third Law is "For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction" The engine is turning clockwise when standing at the front of the car. The opposite of that is counter-clockwise. The engine is producing torque, which you're applying to the drive train. The drive train is a torque multiplier of the engine output. For example lets say you launch the car at the engine out put of torque of 800 lb-ft. You have a 2.66 first gear and 3.73 rear gears. 800 lb-ft x 2.66 first gear x 3.73 rear gears equates to 7937.44 lb-ft of torque at the contact patch of the tires being applied by the engine. Now this torque is used to move the car forward, but at the same time depending on tire slippage versus car movement, the initial reaction is trying to twist the engine in the opposite direction of engine rotation. The motor mounts job is to arrest this movement of the engine to allow the torque to be applied to the tires. The problem is you're using a motor mount with a bushing. Even though it is a poly-urethane with much less deflection when compared to the stock mount, it is still going to compress and allow the engine to twist in the chassis of the car. This compression of the lower bushing half of the motor mount will bring the left side of the supercharger closer to the hood of the car at launch. [/QUOTE]
