AMT Motorsports Corvette C5 / C6 SHORT Vulcan Motor Mounts
AMT Motorsports Corvette C5 / C6 SHORT Vulcan Motor Mounts
Alleviate concerns of stock mount deterioration and cracking as well as engine movement with our two piece vulcanized rubber motor mounts.
Not a lot of thought is given to Corvette motor mounts until it's too late. The stock motor mounts are gushy pillows of rubber filled with oil. Over time being exposed to heat and engine movement these mounts begin to deteriorate and eventually crack, spewing oil underneath your car. That gushy feeling of the stock mounts is amplified into a dangerous situation of your engine moving all over the engine bay. The car should not be driven in this state.
We now offer a shorter "race" version to allow clearance for a Fast 102 intake. This race version is 3/8" shorter than stock and also is 1/2" smaller in diameter to allow even more room for dry sump lines. These parts are gold anodized. You should not order the race mounts unless you know you need them. You may run into clearance issues with a stock crank dampener, oil pan, leaf springs, etc so be aware of your clearances before ordering the race version.
AMT alleviates this concern with a two-piece Vulcan Motor Mounts. Two machined and red anodized 6061-Aluminum cups capture 4 custom machined pieces of vulcanized rubber (street name: hockey puck) to eliminate engine shake.Ā In the middle is a 6061-aluminum disc that is Hard Andodized with teflon to keep the rubber pucks in shape and to prevent galling. Vulcanized rubber has a much higher working temperature than standard polyurethane mounts, so these mounts stand up to all the heat your engine bay can throw at them. No need to wrap them in heat tape to keep the "pucks" in tact. For a demonstration of this resistance, click here to see what happens when a hockey puck is subjected to 4000 degrees Fahrenheit of iron thermite. We guarantee these mounts for as long as the Earth revolves on its axis, and if any part ever fails we will replace them at no charge.
In addition to being the last motor mount you'll ever need to buy, these mounts are much stiffer than stock, eliminating engine movement during performance driving. This difference can be felt on the racetrack, the drag strip, and during spirited driving. The trade-off is more noticeable NVHĀ on a daily commuteĀ but will appreciate once you start driving fast. The mounts also allow more room for oil lines to be run while using a dry sump, and they attach to the engine mount brackets and cradle with included Grade 10 bolts and hardware. You can crash your car into a wall at at least 37 mph and re-use these mounts after the front end of your car is rebuilt. Ask us how we know. Lastly a full color, high quality instruction manual is included to guide you through the installation process.
As always, all machined parts are made in-house at their facility in New York, USA.
Lifetime Gaurantee - If you manage to fail any part of our Vulcan Motor Mounts for any reason at all, we will replace the damaged parts free of charge - no questions asked.

Let customers speak for us
from 244 reviewsBrian R. was extremely helpful and spent a good amount of time answering my questions about switching to coilovers. He was a wealth of knowledge and made the purchasing and installation process very easy.
He is so genuine, he helped me out on which parts I should get for my wifeās ā16 Veloster Turbo. Parts came super fast and was packaged beautifully
Havn't installed yet so I cannot speak to the parts, as they get some run time I will review. Brian at FI was amesome though all through the process. Had questions prior to ordering and he went above and beyond in providing me with answers. After I ordered the parts he called a few days later appologizing for not reaching out sooner, which is crazy cool since country was dealing with hurricane devestation. I didnt expect to recieve parts for a while however they all showed up in about a week. I will def do buisiness with them again and recommend them to anyone in the future.
I bought Silvers Neomax coilovers with aero spring rates (14k/12k) for my track car. The quality of them is great. Install was straight forward and they are easy to adjust and tune as needed. Real happy with them so far and I think they're the best value out there in coilovers. Great price without a sacrifice in quality or performance. Also Brian at FI PERFORMANCE has been great in responding to all of my questions. Has been a great experience so far.
Quality part.
Brian answered every time I called and answered all the questions
Excellent coilovers
The best customer service from Brian
Highly recommended
Car looks great and. Handles amazing
Works great it stiffens up the rear end and no more wheel hop best diff brace out of all I have used in the past, money well spent.
Installed the After Dark hooks on my C5: the rear hook was very easy, and if you only need one hook, it's a quick and easy install. Front is more work: you're going to want a step drill or right angle adapter, since clearance between the bumper and A/C condenser is tight. Drilling into the bumper is not trivial: it's hard, use cutting fluid and make sure your drill bits are sharp. Once it's drilled and the rivnuts are installed, it's easy from there. It's a good design, well made, and at a reasonable price.
The product was originally marked for 2005 and up gx470. I managed to fit it into my 2003 by flipping one of the front hanger mounts. Sound is throaty and deep a bit loud at first. But the sound has mellowed out after a few hundred miles. Hardest part was removing old exhaust had to use Sawzall. Make sure to buy the 2.5 donut gasket ahead of time. The system is high clearance. Its tucked between the frames no chance of hang ups.
Itās the best mod Iāve done. Should have been the first thing I did.
Brian was extremely kind and helpful to make sure I was getting set up with the correct products. The Brey Krause harness bar is extremely high quality. Donāt cheap out on safety stuff this is definitely the harness bar you want in your c5. The combination of great service from Brian and the quick arrival I highly recommend FI Performance and will definitely be using them in the future!
Five stars for the parts and service. Ride quality is better than expected for a coilover setup. And Brian was super helpful in getting the correct setup for my truck
Fits perfectly and does exactly what it needs to do. No complaints.
Brian recommended these end links after sharing my plans to do some HPDE, Autocross and Street driving for the C5 Z06. The parts feel great, I did have a warranty issue that was addressed by both Brian and AFE, I was very satisfied that they took care of my issue in a timely manner as well. Highly recommend both Brian and AFE, thank you as always for your help!
