Uuuh, you use mm t-plate? You probably need to move the t-plate by one hole. You're having either a 94 mm wheel base or 96 mm currently.

using gtr F1 & lambo lp 670-4 yes my car mm, car is 98mm, +3 rear wheels with stock motor mount all is well, moving t plate then the wheelbase too long instead of wheels being fouled at arch by clip its fouled at rear of arch as well as tire scrubbing on upper of arch too,
theres no sweet spot in centre, is there an specfic t plate to use with mount for 98mm?

With motormount in 94 config, you use a regular MM T-plate, mounted one pos rear on the chassis.

Make sure that you have a MM type T-plate.

Then you need to reverse your motormount t-plate holder.

Just wanted to mention that I put the 945 mount through hell today (6 hour endurance race, plus a normal race night), and it gave me no problems whatsoever. Put up some very fast laptimes as well. It has to be the best 94mm mount that I have used to date...

Any tips on how to get the white plastic bearing holders into the mount? It looks like the plastic is a bit over sized.

Make sure you use a hobby knife to clean off any of the burs off. After that, try to press into the holder to just locate it in the hole and then just use either a hard, flat surface or a set of pliers to "press" it in.

We made them a bit tighter since the previous version some people reported a loose fit.

CT - I think it is great you taking the time to pay attention to details like the fitment of the delrin bearing carriers on your RR 945 motor pod. They are soo critical and I hate it when they are even a little loose. Good call making the bearing carriers a little more tight

I used fine sandpaper to clean any burs in the plastic and gently sanded down the entire outer surface of the carrier while test fitting. Works great now.

I like that the bearing carriers are a little tight. As stated, a little knife/file work and they go in nice and snug. There is no play once they are installed, at all.
