Sun Speed / Sun International Racing were the first to install the Honda B18C into the Elise. We have continued the evolution of our components with nearly 15 years of experience on the road, track, endurance racing and exhaust emissions. Our K20 / FD2 motor mounts solve the dilemma of securing the power train as one with the chassis without transmitting engine vibration . . . "buzz"
The Sun Speed motor mounts (4) are designed for simple bolt-on, easy installation retaining the original Elise isolators. No fabrication, welding or modification to the original Elise chassis. The Honda power train (engine, gear box, differential) is securely positioned, with sufficient clearance, proper weight distribution, minimal engine movement and . . . no "buzz."
The Sun Speed motor mounts will work with high output engines including super charged, turbo charged and increased displacement. Components are made from 1018 steel, fabricated to aircraft standards, cadmium plated or 6061 aluminum hard anodized.
Complete set of power train mounts (4) including hardware - $1,700 USD
