96 AUTO TRANSMISSION MOUNT

[dchatcher]

It appears that the 96 Corvette auto Transmission mount is a special mount different than the regular GM mount. Is there only a lower supporting mount as on regular cars, or are are there a upper and lower with the tailshaft housing sandwiched between them? I cannot find out from the part house catalogs.
Another question relates to the mount that comes off the location at the bellhousing/engine on each side. Was this an additional mounting special to the Corvette with rubber bushing? Can't locate any info on it but have the mounts at that location that have been cut and appear they would go to a frame support. I only have the engine and tranny - no car at this point. Would greatly appreciate any info or drawing available. THX

All C4's from 84 to 96 use a unique transmission mount that bolts to the "C" beam. The beam does not attach to the frame or body, it connects the transmission to the differential pumpkin. The transmission tailshaft is completely different from other cars using the 4l60E or 700R4 automatic.
The mounts you describe on the rear of the engine sound like the brackets for the catalytic converters. Hope that helps.
