turbo fb... what do you use

ok i am doing the t2 swap in the 83. and i think the motors gonna be shifting a lot with a aimed 300hp. i think the r.b. torque brace is a liitle cheese. i would think it would bent that rod they use. i was thinking of something a little nicer on the eyes like the fd's have from feed.... its a piston with a mount on the fender and on the intake.... i plan on using the front mount front cover. and i think it might bust so i want to brace the motor as good as posable. i know a friend of mine has a 1/2 bridge 12a and has broken the front cover more than 1 time.

I may get one soon too.

I have a 4 point front strut bar and it doesn't touch the plenum while sitting, but the scratches on it prove otherwise when driving.

The scratches go all the way to the top of the bar!! My motor has to flex over an inch to do that!

I didn't think it would flex that much, but this proof is undisputed.

I would ask what AJC-13B is doing. I'm going with the stock setup.

Standard front mounts. Haven't damaged the mounts or cross member yet, touch wood...
