My exhaust has been blowing abit since i had it replaced and when i lift off in 2nd gear i can hear a thud, i had i look at my top engine mount and i can move the engine/mount back and forth abit. Is this normal?

Hey,

First thing, would you be so kind to register your Trophy in the 'Trophy Owners Register' section, then you can get your 3rd star :) .

On to the mounts. There is a good chance your engine mount has seen better days. With the standard mounts you can physically shake the engine but only very slightly, excessive movement would be the result of worn mounts. The noise you hear is the manifold knocking on the subframe and is a big sign the mounts have perished, it will probably do this when you accelerate violently at high revs too ?
