Suggest making sure the motor mounts don't have excessive end-play, and install a torque strap.

Just my $0.02... wink


iagree Any stick car should have a torque strap(we’ll probably most autos too) because once you feel how much easier they shift you’ll wonder why it wasn’t on the option sheet back in the day.

I also agree and every stick car I've owned had had one at the front and back of the motor. The back of the motor came about as we were losing transmission mounts after trips to the strip back in the day. We were on slicks with the suspensions set up so that may have been a factor wink
