  • Saw there wasn't any other video's on this, so I created this video of a run through on installing energy suspension motor mounts on an LS1 camaro.

    Props to you for going through all that hell. I can't help but think it would have been just as much work to drop the whole front sub assembly. I love these cars but hate having to do jobs like this. Doubly so when I have to be able to drive it to work Monday morning. :)

    15 millimeter not 15 inch. Kudos for doing it in stock form though. I did mine when I did H/C/I swap

    Sorry if this has already been asked. How must more vibration did you notices with the poly mounts? I'm going to replace mine with either stock rubber ones or the poly ones. And F$%@ going solid motor mounts!!!!!! Call me a pu#%y, I just don't want to have my teeth rattle around.

      It was a loud v8 camaro that was already lowered with suspension. I didn’t notice any difference

      ​@@v8only Thanks. Mine's a cammed v8 trans am with a stiff suspension. lol The exhaust is also a step louder than stock. If I were to guess, I won't notice a difference. Vibration at idle should be non existent or not bad at the very least.

    So my bolts are in backwards. Trying to replace motor mounts with solids, when taking the 18mm bolts out the driver side was easy but passenger side runs into the dipstick. I found your video and realized the previous owner installed the bolts backwards at some time during this cars life

    looks like if im planning on installing headers that would be a good time to do it

    You are a beauty for filming this process and explaining exactly everything you gotta do. i Would know how much of a pain it is because im currently trying to pull my ls1 and t56 out the top of my f-body z28 on stands AND filming my process in my garage... not fun lol

    I did it a couple hours a day. you could get it done in a weekend for your first time. the hardest part was the learning curve. once you get the first side done, the next is easier

    Great video. Thanks for posting. I've been told that i need my steering wrack removed. Thanks to this, i had evidence that you don't However,I do have LT headers tho. You think I need to take those off?

    I've read that you can leave the long tubes on. not 100% on that

    i have a question i was maybe gonna do mine and i was wondering if you can do this with the transmission still in the car and did you take off the exhaust headers

      jon sixxx from what? This was a long time ago. Ran great after this. Smooth

      Most poly mounts cause vibrations ur a lucky one

    • @v8only
      @v8only  4 года назад +1

      jon sixxx i put them in my foxbodys all the time. Solid mounts will vibrate but not poly in my experience
