should I cut out the engine mounts?
I am converting my car over to a six useing a Rich Johnson firewall engine mount so I am wondering should I cut out the OEM 4 cylinder mounts? I have heard this helps add clearance to remove the lower valve covers. How much of the mount should be removed?

The stock Sixes didn't have the pods hanging down at all, so you can get rid of the whole part that hangs down.
