Not seeing much about this. Would like to hear from folks who have a LS swapped 40 running the hockey puck LS motor mounts from advanced adaptors. Do they crush and crack with time? Looking for long term durability feedback.

We used these pucks on my buddys 40 way back in 1988!!! They are still working all these years later!

Well then! Nice! Thats a good data point! Headers close to pucks (center dischrge) or rear discharge? Center discharge sees more heat. Curious about this
From Advance Adapters site: "Note: These engine mounts fit the new Gen III / IV, LS-Series V8. The mounts have been designed to use with Truck exhaust manifolds or rear dump headers and will interfere with car (Corvette / Camaro / Trans-Am) exhaust manifolds."
Maybe from a different adapter set but I'm sure you get the idea.

They work with Sanderson center discharge headers. My son has it on his LS 40. We will see how long it lasts!
Fwiw, sbc fenderwell headers, so not as much heat, but those AD donuts are solid! Unlike dunkin donuts!!!

@whitey45, you surely know a thing or two about these rigs!!! Is this what you have in your LS 45?
FWIW You can get the frame side GM oem pieces to wled on and use stock mounts , their bigger tho so if packaging is an issue the AA ones are smaller, had them on the old sbc for years no issues. Its, cleaners and oil soaking that kills them.
No, it has custom mounts,but I see no issue with the AD mounts!
