Guest Anonymous Posted February 24, 2000 Share Posted February 24, 2000 I thought I'd add, for folks new to V8 Z's and ZX's, that the John's mount in the pic is for the ZX, not the Z. Of course they'd work in the early cars, but you'd have the "Scarab" setup then. The Scarab term doen't apply to a ZX. When the engine mounts are directly over the stock frame locations, the engine is as close to the firewall as it can go in the ZX. Clear as mud, right? For my next act, I'll atttempt to draw the tranny mount.

Guest Locutus Posted February 25, 2000 Share Posted February 25, 2000 I have a ZX and since I am fixing to start my conversion. I am trying to decide which kit to get my brackets from. I would be intrested to see what anyones brackets look like so I can make a more informed decision, so if any one has pictures or drawings of Motersports kit for the ZX as well I would be intrested in seeing them.

Guest Anonymous Posted July 23, 2000 Share Posted July 23, 2000 Don't know if this is too late but sure I'd like to see the bmp of the mounts for the ZX. Not sure if you can send it to me so if you get this put a reply on my new subject 280zx suggestions. Thanks, Jake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Modern Motorsports Ltd Posted August 8, 2000 Share Posted August 8, 2000 Well my motor mount setup currently is as simple as it gets IMO. I'd have to measure it up but mine (as all ZX's I've talked to or seen) lines right up on my crossmember. The standard chevy motor mount (as per JTR) bolts to my crossmember with the single large bolt from underneath. Then on top of this mount is basically a ~2.25" shim/spacer. Just a thick stack of homecut triangular (to match motor mount bolt pattern and matching patter on block) aluminum flatplates. Just like a big stack of washers b/t the mount and engine, dead solid, bolts from motor mount pass thru this stack into the block same as JTR but just no setback plate. Hope this is clear?

Guest Anonymous Posted January 27, 2001 Share Posted January 27, 2001 Hey guys, If anyone still wants a drawing of the John's mounts, please email me directly as I don't get back here very often to read the postings for requests of it.

BLKMGK Posted January 27, 2001 Share Posted January 27, 2001 If anyone already has it I'd be willing to host it for a bit on my (mostly up) WEB server Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
