    Guys-

    Does anyone know who sells anti-chatter adjusters? These are a "L" shaped bracket that bolts on to a flathead Ford mount. They prevent the mount from moving back and forth. At one time Hurst used to make them but Speedway and Jegs no longer carry them. I found a picture of what I am looking for below.

    Thanks

    Tom

    I'm a bit sceptical about them, all they can do is preload the engine mount bolt. Proper Ford anti-chatter rods brace the engine block rigidly to the frame in a fore and aft direction.

    You could easily fab up something that would do the job - or even heave on a lever at the critical point when tightening the engine mount nut, and put some pre-load in that way.

    Not convinced.
