VIN is wrong

engine code 9 (northstar 300hp)

Front motor mount is a little tricky to change. I you are a "handy fellow" you may do it, but the subframe needs to be lowered quite a bit. Good luck with the eldo.

The VIN comes up invalid for some reason.

$100 bucks labor, maybe for one mount.

Depends on the rate you shop charges.

We get 2hrs labor for the job.

93 was an oddball year for the northstar. It usually cost more to repair 'cause the parts were low production.
everthing got better 95 +

But i thing the early ones had the most zip. Fun to drive.
