GP dogbone?
Anyone ever consider the front top dogbone engine mount from a GP? My recent engine rock discovery got me thinking. It would take a little fabrication, but would our radiator support handle the load?

The GP'* are reinforced in the front to handle the dogbones. I think our engines are mounted differently, so it would require a bit of fabrication.

Why don't you just work on getting or making polyurethane bushings for the dogbone we have the the side mount?

It'* possible to get Liquid/pourable urethane. I don't know what sort of durometers are possible with this, but it'* one option.... One could make some plaster molds from stock pieces etc...
