I have a couple of questions..
1) why only MTX?
2) is it possible to fill the ATX mounts?
MY understanding (very limited) is that the mounts connect the engine/transmission to the subframe of the car, right? so therefore filling it with a hard substance (the polyurethane) cause the stiffness that cause the NVH but at the same time prevent or dramatically reduces the wheelhop associated with the engine itself moving?
I hope I'm getting all this correct.
Anywayz, it could be all wasted in my opinion anyway cause I have and CD4e...but that leads me back to the original questions..help me out please. Its not that I plan on racing my slushbox..lol, its just I figure since I'm changing mounts soon I might as well see if they can be filled.

I can do the front for either transmition as they're the same. I only have a jig to do a solid poly rear for the MTX, the ATX mount is a bit different, however i could fill it like i do the fronts.

ok so the next question is..since you can do it for the ATX, Will you? and will the price be the same?
BTW I was talking to a few mechanics who I think are trying to screw me outta money. They're telling me they have to remove the exhaust manifolds and stuff to get to the rear mount and its gonna take 2-3 hours minimum. I looked on this site and it pretty much says theres 4 screws.. to remove and then brace the engine and put the new mount in. Is that all? Oh and is there like a break in period for the mounts?

I have a very milited knowledge bas reguarding the rar ATX mount, the "4-bolts and it's out" method applies to the MTX mount, not necesarily the ATX. The price would be the same and i'ld need your rear mount to fill as i will never have a core. No break in period.
