Hockey puck engine mount ?
« on: 20 October 2012, 19:59 »
I've read the guide

http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=212007.0

And posted on topic but says the thread is to old to post ,

The cahoots says he used 3 and half pucks . How do you get the half cut accurately ? And the photo doesn't show where it goes / clear set up.

And are 3x1 " pucks correct to use ?

Fairly clear in the guide dude. The 2 1/2 pucks are used to replace the inside "swiss cheese" piece of rubber and then one more puck on the underside of the front subframe with the large original washer.

I've ordered 5. Going to use 4 for extra stiffness.

How much did you pay for 5 and where did you buy from ?

Extra stiffness isn't necessarily a good thing. Dash starts to vibrate.
