ya, there is a huge range of opinions. Pretty much have to get them and try them yourself.
Thats what I am going to have to do.
Be careful on that clearance. If you lower your motor, your sump will be on the ground. I'm going to use fender washers to shim back to stock height bc I dont want to lower my engine any.

the biggest question is, what exactly is stock height? Are they measureing the compressed or uncompressed. When we are talking in the 1/4" range, do the stock mounts even compress that much?
Either way, I went with the Revshift ones. They were $100 shipped and the guy said they are only like 1/8" shorter. Easy enough to shim to height with washers.
And Gord, at least I am not starting my own 'dreaming' build thread quite yet
