question on mounting stability

[rapieper at yahoo.com (Ron Pieper)]

Well, if I read this right, the answer is that the engine is not going to fall out of the car if
you remvoe the rear tranny mount or front mount.  It will rock fore and aft on the DS and PS
mounts a bit though, but won't drop *down* - or shouldn't anyway.
