Tried searching but couldn't find what I am looking for.
Does anybody sell Prothane mounts that keep the stock motor height without having to machine them?

Not that I've seen. Some folks have machined about 1/4" guesstimating that's how much the stockers settle. They've said it comes out pretty close.

I think he wants to keep his engine height at the factory level.


Actually from what I've been reading you have to machine the mounts 1/4'' to keep the factory height.

I thought that maybe somewhere they had some for sale that was already machined.

Kenneth tell Lance to give you the ones that came off my car. He has them in a box by the door with all the S197 extra stuff in it. I'm not going to be needing them anymore, so your welcome to them.

yeap 1/4 inch higher doesn't really do a difference unless you are having already a tight fit. the couplings will help you move around a bit. You notice it with Long Tube Headers or a cluttered engine bay like me.

it does raise it not much like kenneth said about a 1/4" the only reason i know is because of the che strut bar i have i set it just to where the bar didn't touch my cover when i had the stockers but since the prothanes went in the bar just touches the top of the cover ..... when the motor comes out i'll prolly get my buddy to machine them shorter just to give me the clearance back up top because the bar still hits the hood liner so there is no raising it lol
