has anyone ever tried adding a dogbone to their bonnie?
i don't see how it would really be that hard, since these motors have dogbones on other cars.

This upper dogbone has been discussed dozens of times here. The Bonneville was never designed for one, so the radiator core support was not designed with enough strength in the first place.

Coming from someone that produces phenomenal low-end torque, new OEM mounts are more than sufficient.
