Anyone know where to find 1?

IM barely fit. BARELY. Gotta actually tilt the engine forward a bit, cuz its tapping the brake booster. How much for the mount? My mechanic was saying something bout strengthening the mounts too after he drove it for the 1st time. Is there anything we can do for the front and rear mounts?

thatll probably have to be my next mod after the new ECU. it was actually running on the F23 motor to get it started to check if it would run. God this is expensive.

Also i highly recommend the Forbidden Motorsports short shifter. Has 3 different settings, mine is on the tightest one (race setting). Its amazing, flick of the wrist shifting lol. 1st to 2nd and 3rd to 4th are like flicking an automatic from D4 to D3 lol.

they sell non brand mounts on ebay. the poly inserts are there as well. the front insert is made by energy and the rear is made from someone else. the rear might be tought to find but i got em both

Update: So i was helping my mechanic work some things out at the shop, and we managed to go through 4 KNOCK SENSORS ! Damn things kept breaking when we were trying to put em on! I do love my engine bay though, its so beautiful . This is how the CL should have came stock! I was rollin' around Cali style with no hood on, just letting the engine show haha .
KUUUMMMAARRRR i need that damn power steering bracket! Its hard as hell to turn this big bitch from a dead stop! LOL. Well not hard, just annoying cuz im used to doing it with a flick of the wrist, and now i gotta do work .
