Don't see any twisting or rivets pulling out on this set. Thought they looked good until I peeled back the heat shielding...rubber was a little toasted. Maybe 1000 miles on these. These were Genuine GM made in China mounts.

Just worked on some sensors today. Pre and post IC IAT, oil pressure, HX in/out temp.

Thinking about exhaust back pressure and crankcase pressure sensors as well.

Thinking about trying some re-worked LS9 intake gaskets instead of the paper LS7 Felpros. This is the best fit arrangement.

Did you have to remove the glove box organizer deal so you could close the door?

Haven't got to it yet but that is the plan.

Looks good. Did you ensure that there is no metal to metal contact between the Dominator case and the dash support frame?
