- 2010 VE1.5 SV6 Ute
Hey Y'all!
After my Alloytec finally decided to give up the ghost , I've decided to do a complete swap-over to a reconditioned engine. Now, Whilst I did a little googling, I noticed that the engine mounts for a V8 and V6 look pretty damn similar. I also noticed that there are upgraded (i.e, more solid) mount options for a V8, but not for a V6, despite both sets of mounts looking pretty damn similar.
I also ask because SuperPro offer a Urethane mount which shares an identical part number for both V6 and V8 versions... Which strikes me as both confused and curious.
So, I was wondering, is there any key differences in the ways in which a V6 and V8 mounts in a VE, and if there isn't much difference, reckon a set of Tuff mounts would work for a V6 application? It's for science. Otherwise, I'll probably go with the SuperPro Urethane mounts.
