I have the rear suspension apart on my '72 240z and want to install a R/T mount. My car is stock type setup with a 2.8L engine and 5spd from a 280zx along with a R200 diff and no plans to install a V8 or anything. From what I have read I think I would be just fine with the traditional bump stop design and possibly cutting off 1/4 of an inch of the bump stop if I needed to. However the method of using the GM trans mount looks much better since it eliminates the bottom mount all together thus eliminating any possibly movement. My question is, would there be any negative effects on my stock style drive train by using the GM trans mount setup?
