edwardm Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Right,An engine damper obviously attaches to somewhere rigid like the strut turret etc, but where does the other end attach to the engine?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johngreen537 Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 One end goes over the upper engine mount mate, the other on the head casing....That make sense? It does to me, but I've installed one before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edwardm Posted January 28, 2011 Author Share Posted January 28, 2011 Yeh i do get what you mean.To be honest i was going to buy a Civic one and just have some brackets made to fit my Polo really, so i'm guessing i can bracket it to the cylinder head where the engine hoist point is, and then i'll have to find somewhere on the chassi/turret to join it to?

johngreen537 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Yes mate, they don't really get a great deal of load, just braces the engine to reduce lost power in the drivetrain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
