This mount is designed specifically for the transmission mount duty on the
914, the body design is NOT the same as the
911 engine mount (O.E. or WEVO) - often substituted - the 914 transmission
mount is a unique hanging design, our body component is designed to suit.
The slotted holes allow for easy "pre-load free" installation, or to accommodate
your distorted mounts where 911 engine mounts have previously been bolted up.
Aluminum, Urethene and Stainless steel construction. The elastomer pillows and
their configuration is shared with the successful WEVO SS Engine Mount that has
been a big seller with the 911 crowd.
WEVO is now offering the option between the
standard "Blue" Pillows (P.N. W-914TRANS-BL) and an alternate more compliant
"Black" Pillows (P.N.
W-914TRANS-BK) for the range of WEVO SS Engine and
Transmission mount products. The new Black Pillows are 15 points softer on the
Shore A scale for durometer readings than the original "Blue" Pillows. The
Black pillows function in the same way as the Blue pillows although they allow
slightly more deflection under similar loads the advantage is lower noise
transfer through the SS mount module.
From our testing we would suggest the Black pillows for any street use only SS
transmission mounts. If you drive your car to the track would might also
consider these. For pure track work we recommend the original Blue pillows for
both SS Transmission and SS Engine mounts. The Black pillows are also good for
engine mounts on Street only cars offering a reduction of engine noise
transfer over the Blue pillows much less engine mount deflection and drive
train movement than the O.E. or O.E. Sport Engine mounts.
They have created this option to provide more flexibility in the WEVO SS product
range.
