    I had one of the old IPD stabilizers for some years, and found it was mostly good for causing stress cracks in the inner fender sheet metal. I haven't used one since, not even in race cars. A healthy, well-tuned engine doesn't rock anyway.

      As Phil said but it would have been useful if you'd prefaced your question as to why you think you need one. Old oil soaked engine and gearbox mounts might make everything seem a bit unstable and new ones should fix that. Heavy duty ones such as the 164 mounts will stiffen things up if you need it.

        I've got a few of the old IPD ones that I have pulled off of wrecked cars in the past. Drop me a note off list and I can sell you one cheap...


        Thanks
