Speed Six & Rover V8 Engine Mounts

Two different mounts for two different engines

We had to design these mountings due to the standard engine mount not being able to cope with large power increases, any extra heat or even some aggresive drvers. It also soon came to our attention that the standard mounts were more of a problem with the speed six engine'nd cars.

 

Features and benefits of the SC Power engine mount

 

  • The engine mount has an in built 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 position.

  • 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.


The following factors generate excessive stress and loading to the engine mount causing premature failure.

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.
