jnec510 Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 title says it all. i dropped my motor in my 2door an put the hood on an the valve cover touched. so i think i got truck motor mounts so im in a pickle. let me know if you got some. thanks jason Link to comment
slodat Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 Elongate the holes to drop the engine down. L20's will hit the hood on 510 with motor mounts that are in good shape. Did you buy aftermarket ones? I've heard the Beck/Arnley motor mounts are a little thicker than the Nissan mount and can cause the engine to hit the hood. Link to comment
jnec510 Posted October 12, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 but i have a l16 in it. why would an 1600 hit the hood Link to comment

hang_510 Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 I've heard the Beck/Arnley motor mounts are a little thicker than the Nissan mount and can cause the engine to hit the hood. for me, ALL aftermarket MM were taller. problem solved w/new MM from nissanparts.cc big problem for me when i already have a dented hood for clearance :blink: Link to comment
xyzalvarez Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 go to almost any nissan dealer... i almost ordered a new MM of universal city nissan for almost $35 ea. then found out i have a spare one on my garage...but it is good to know some dealers still have those parts on stock.
