so in conclusion, it is possible... jz that u need to find out which part of ur engine vibrates most when revving and mount the damper there... make sure the bracket is done properly and the dampers is stiff enough (but not too stiff la)...

what the function of dis damper?to assist ori engine mounting?..

anyone can explain it?:hmmmm:
Actually it's use to hold the engine so it won't vibrate too much...The engine vibration force will absorb seperately by the mountings and the damper..

Correct me if i'm wrong...:biggrin:

Again ignore this crap video. Just listen to the sound. Hehe.
