Front K-member Spacers?

[Wolvee]

Does anyone know what Front K-member spacers consist of and who sells them? ..Or if it's possible to fab them myself? A certain Kenne Bell retailer I won't mention the name of, just put a 3.6L under the stock hood and they said they did it with the KB drop mounts and Sub-frame spacers. I haven't dropped an S550 front end yet so I have no idea what is involved or if there would be alignment issues if done incorrectly.

I think you mean motor mounts like the ones for the 2005-2009 linked below. Not sure who sells the ones for the 18+.

Yeah, like Schwerin said, pretty sure you're talking about motor mounts. We make some buddy!

Yeah, I know about the motor mounts you sent me a set Jigar, and my motor is comfortably sitting 3/4" lower. I'm curious about the K-member spacers.


A Company (B**stworks) installed a big 3.6L Kenne Bell on an S550 while keeping the stock hood. (Which is normally impossible even with lowering motor mounts.) They said they used the Lowering motor mounts but ALSO used spacers between the K-member and the frame.

K-member spacers effectively raise the body/lower the Kmember away from the frame. This allows for the taller blower to be moved downward and fit under the stock hood.

I haven't seen anyone sell or make spacers for this application. I've used them on the old SN95's but I'm not sure about Alignment issues with the S550.

@Jigar@Steeda Is your Autocross K-member Still on track for the end of the quarter?

I have a combination of things on my car that lower the engine. Our MM008, our 0.500" drop Kmember and also shimmed the kmember down. Even shimmed trans crossmember and IRS subframe. Of course, we tend to go a little more hardcore than most - if you wanna call me tomorrow id be happy to discuss .

Sooooooo Basically this means a 2015/2017 4.7 Kenne Bell from Evoperform will fit in a 2018...........

LOL im kidding but seriously giant kenne bell would be killer!

engine lowering mounts + k member spacers + giant KB = RIP all the rubber in the world.
