Unique engine mounts specifically designed for Speed6 & Rover V8 engine installations

 

Standard TVR/Rover engine mounts fail prematurely for many reasons:


  • Transmitted torque exceeds the maximum loading of engine mount

  • The dimensional span between engine mounts differs by 6mm from the chassis dimension causing difficult installation and excessive pre load to the mount when installed. The engine mount only offers dimension tolerance and vertical movement in Z axis. There is no built in adjustment for width in Y axis.

  • The temperature environment on the exhaust side exceeds the maximum working temperature of the rubber compound.

  • In the event of mount failure, the engine may drop causing damage to engine ancillary equipment.


These factors generate excessive stress and loading to the engine mount causing premature failure.
The SC Power mount has been developed over 12 months to overcome these issues, control the engine and increase power and torque delivery to the rear wheels.
Unique features of the SC Power mount are:


  • The engine mount has an inbuilt torque restraint system which controls engine movement at all times eliminating the risk of damage to engine ancillary equipment whilst minimising noise, vibration and harshness.

  • Risk of damage to engine ancillary equipment is eliminated due to control of engine postion.

  • The compound used was developed for Formula 1 applications, has excellent vibration absorption characteristics and is able to work in high heat applications exceeding the temperatures generated by the speed6 engine.

  • The engine mount has been redesigned to permit lateral adjustment to eliminate engine mount preload.

  • To satisfy the demand for both road and race applications these mounts are available in two different hardness grades, Road/Track and Race, the race compound being much harder with resultant increases in transmitted horsepower and engine performance.
