Well things have changed a little bit. Two saturdays ago I have a little run in with a tree . . . .

<a href='http://www.eosperformance.com/forum/vie ... php?t=2105' target='_blank'>http://www.eosperformance.com/forum/vie ... ?t=2105</a>

Therefore some of the plans have been changed for the quest. Mainly reverting to a 2.0L instead of a 2.4L and running OBDII. And the project goes onto an accelerated schedule. Question quickly about the motor mounting:

Using the Quest mounts u'll need two of the passenger side mounts correct?

What if your using the mighty max mounts? Do I need the a right and left?

Will the mighty max mounts mate with the other halves on the crossmember?

Here's a few more pics of the work in progress:

Man that sucks! Hope everything goes good for ya. Wish I could answer your questions, but I'm a long ways from getting to that point. At least on the bright side now you'll have the Quest done quicker! :D
Well, now I've got the truck, should I do the swap? :)<br><a href='http://www.handcraftedracing.com' target='_blank'>http://www.handcraftedracing.com</a><br><a href='http://storm.prohosting.com/likness' target='_blank'>http://storm.prohosting.com/likness</a>

Its but a flesh wound...

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss... I hate when stuff like that happens and it reminds me just how close that stuff comes every day. I hope it doesnt put too much of a physical, emotional or financial pinch on you.

Just get D50 set of mounts if you're in a rush. They should be the same from side to side. Get the pair if you're going with the D50 stuff.

I'm not possitive on which side the mount is on the starion. One side needs 1 hole drilled and its a piece of cake if you go with Starion mounts. its the narrowest of the 2 though. if you see 2 of them you'll know what I'm talking about.

Bushings are the same either side. You might want to even buy some Poly ones on SQC..

Getting the engine bolted in is about 10% of the way there.
The next 80% can go quickly with help and skill.
That last 10% takes about as long as the 90% that came before it.
