The mounts have one threaded side that is centered on the mount, and the other side is offset a bit. My question is which side faces the frame or ground, and which side bolts up to the engine? I need to know this so I can get this S50 into the damn car already!
For those using Revshift 24v swap mounts!

I'm imagining it works the same as the oem guibo? Try it out.

I toyed with this as well when I did mine. I basically decided it didn't matter as long as you could rotate them around and get the drivetrain straight and the mounts not in a bind. I think I ended up with the offset facing up, but cannot remember. Working good so far. Turbo m52E30 m50/s52 turbo partout:

Ask anyone who's put a LS1 in a pinto or an SR20 in a neon it's all the same, you install the mounts so that the drive train does not bind. It's that simple.

When I placed mine on the subframe I figures they fit the little "cups" on the subframe best with the centered rod facing down.For all things 24v, check out Markert Motorworks!Originally posted by mbonanniI hate modded emtree, I hate modded cawrz, I hate jdm, I hate swag, I hate stanceyolokids, I hate bags (on cars), I hate stuff that is slowz, I hate tires.

Got mine in today, they wanted to both be rotated toward the driver side but it looks a lot straighter than any of the other swaps I've seen or done with OEM mounts. Header clearance and LCAB is plentiful and head is about 1/2" off firewall. Trans is straight no tilt at all. But I never have used a ZF IDK how the hell I'm gonna bleed this clutch.... Much less install the slave up there.Originally posted by 325Projectzdon't listen to the diagram... listen to mr. swiss.Comment
