Ingalls Engineering Stiffy Torque Damper
Well, they used my car to fit/test their product, so I've got it on my car. It was installed this morning by Adam at Ingalls Engineering in Louisville. I know, I know: "torque damper for this engine, haha..." but hey, I figured I'd give it a shot, especially for a free product! Just thought I'd share pics, as I know that this is the first one out there. Enjoy.

I've heard of these causing vibrations and similar noises on other cars. Also heard of them breaking although I dont think the 8 engine should be putting much stress on it. Better polyurethane mounts would do a better job than the stiffy imo.

I haven't noticed much of a difference at this point to be honest. I pretty much drove the car from the shop to home, and to work this morning. Everything was put on yesterday, so I don't think they have a part number or price available as of yet. I'll ask the folks at Ingalls when they plan to do that.

I have an idea for the factory mounts that may make them stronger and last longer but since I cannot remove my solid motor mounts without major surgery right now I may have to ask for a tester or two.
