Do people want them more for direct SRT4 swaps or for the NA 2.4?
    Mayeb we could swap mounts at SDAC to see if they fit the other cars? LOL! My design can be pretty universal for the most part as it uses the stock pass site mount perch and a modified trans mount, but since I rotated the motor forward (turbo clearance) the oil pan sits a little lower. I rotated the motor forward about the axle centerline cuz I didn't want to change that geometry. I got pics.

    I orignially had the motor in with OhioRob's mount that MoparBoyy had with the engine... and it bolted up with a stock trans mount, but not enough firewall clearance for anything more than a startus manifold.. so the L and G were close enough... I got pics.

    The original '97 2.4L and the current '01 2.4Lmount up identically to the block bosses. I don't think the turbo block is any different with the pass side bosses?

    I would be game for a set for my 91 Daytona... I think something that move the engine between stock and where JT's is at would be ideal.

    I kept an 11deg rear tilt to my block, which I think is pretty close to factory, and I was able to fit the Holset in with no massaging necessary.

    Cool.

    Which exhaust manifold?

    Where is your axle/diff axis centerline compared to stock?

    Re: 2.4L Engine Mounts

    I run a custom "equal length" header that puts the turbo up at the top and pretty close to the head. I have no idea where the axle center line is but it must be close or at least all right since I've only broken one axle.

    Re: 2.4L Engine Mounts


    Ok.. I have had a batch for the l-body rampage, charger, omni made for front and side mount. They can be prewelded or just in pieces.. Cost me way more than i thought originally.. checkout www.srt4omni.com I can make a set for the daytona and shadow but first need some return on this first 10 sets i made.. Thinking $100 shipped each mount (add $35 each mount to weld and clean and paint) . I cant see these breaking.. 1/4 inch steel! U will need your own bolts..


    YOU CAN REMOVE THE MOUNT WHILE IT IS IN THE CAR TO GET TO TIMING BELT!!!

    If u know of anything else for doing the sway of a 2.4 in our old school cars let me know i want to post it to www.srt4omni.com

    Note I have the other set i made that is the rough looking mounts for $80 each shipped if want to save a little..

    So that's $270 for the passenger side and front mounts? Does the stamped piece replace the heavy cast OE piece on the side of the block?
    Any modification to the vehicle frame required?

    Re: 2.4L Engine Mounts

    does the mount deal with the difference in dowel locations when using a 568/523 with a 2.4L

    do you have any plans to make one that does?

    Just to update all. I ordered a set from www.srt4omni.com a few months back but have not had the opportunity to try them out yet. They do look sturdy.

    Did anyone ever start making these for say an 88 G body?

    But is a special mount needed for a 555 if running the 2.4? I'm confused
