The torque of an engine is one of the deciding factors for determination of the load applied to the engine mounts. When more powerful engines are installed, it is important to use the following formula to define the load per support in kilograms (4 supporting points).
number of supports engine revs/min. x centre to centre spacing in metres of the longitudinal engine bearers
