I have tried searching, but maybe I'm not using the correct terms. I'm looking for info on how you install a transmission brace. After looking at the trans and surrounding area, I can see where to attach to the trans, but not the other end. I plan to make this brace, so any help would be appreciated.

I think most people have settled on this approach to limit trany movement.

After untold hard launches and complete clutch dumps, I still haven't busted a CV...

Just drill your 85.5-up Tranny hanger to mount bolt holes 3/8"

I just installed one of the XSCHOP Trans mount on a 944 track car, nice quality, nice fitment
Rob is great to work with, He also has a Great Short Shift kit that I am going to install

Keep in mind when you do this. Transmission noise gets considerably louder.

Thanks Brian. The second thread was the one I was looking for.

xschop - I may be contacting you in the near future. Nice piece!

I'm not really concerned so much about noise. The car is gutted and plenty loud as it is.

i have a solid mount fs if anyone needs one. Yes the noise gets louder but i rather enjoyed it.

I did not notice any more gear whine when I installed mine as I designed it where the shoulder bolts are completely isolated from the base-plate. With a solid mount it would definitely increase noise. I have only one left for a late trans and will build more in a few weeks. I am also building more of the short shifters I designed as well. If you haven't seen my chromoly axles, I can build them too with stronger Type 2 CV's (larger ***** and thicker cages)

Hey 95One, here's the pic....It has exactly 30% reduction in lateral and forward/aft throw.

I used the old window weld trick but also plan on adding two guy-wires on either side. This should be a very light and effective way to keep the transmission from shifting left and right.
