BLOX Racing Engine Roll Stopper - special offer - $75 OTD!!!
Bought one of these last week 
Here is my review....
Shipped on time and arrived as promised, tracking numbers and everything job well done, great seller.
I had (note had) an ingalls "stiffy" damper on my car. It was just too damm noisy and transfered alot of high pitched drivetain sound into the car, very annoying. had a couple passenges even comment on it. It did help my 1-2 shift a bit, but not a ton. There was also a bit of slop in the damper itself.
Removed the Stiffy damper.
Now with the Blox.... much better much more solid. Nicely made piece and the fitment was great. Engine sound has increased, but its a low sound, not a high pitched wine, and its really only when I am on the gas. Some increased vibration, but it is minimal. Feels great when your on it now. My 1-2 shift feels very good (this has always been hard on my car, especially here in Buffalo NY with all the cold weather). I can feel exactly where the clutch engagement is much better now.
Excellent piece, especially for the money. I paid almost double for my damper and hated it.
Thanks, Just thought I would share my experience.

Still got a lot of silver mounts left!!
Black one is running a bit low but should be enough to go around!
If you haven't upgrade the front engine mount, this is the time before the race season starts!!! Don't miss out this chance!!

Just received mine today! exactly 7 days after I bought it (great turn around guys!!)
Took me about 30mins to install, that includes putting the car on ramps and removing parts of the under tray ( I didnt see the need to remove the whole thing, just the middle section)
I do notice more vibration (especially with my cams loping)
Like everyone has said before...
-Shifts feel smoother
-Throttle response seems a little better
-Love the way the car feels now pulling threw the gears!!
Great mod for $75 (as long as you can handle the slight increase in vibration)
Thanks Speed Element

Speed Element...
I used the supplied bolts and washers, But I dont really see the need for them, Is there a reason you souldnt use the stock ones??
The only thing I could think of the the stockers are a little shorter than the supplied ones and the new mount is a little thicker... Just my guess
Is that the reason why??

This is the only one we feel you would need to upgrade without sacrifice too much comfort and daily drivability.
If you are looking to upgrade all the motor mounts, I can recommend getting the AVID race mounts. This will transfer a lot more vibrations to cabin and is not recommended for daily driving use.
Thanks!
