The ruckus-racing mounts paired with Nismo KA mounts sit the RB25 too high. My only options at this point is the have the rear of the hood lifted with spacers (engine still touches the hood when closed) or use 2 hockey pucks stacked on top of each other (which I really didn't want to do).

I also didn't want to use the Top Hat rubber isolators, but it looks like I may have to. Does anyone know where to get them or anything similar? I can't figure out a way to get in touch with Mike and last I heard they stopped making the mounts.

You can make your own isolators that are better and stiffer. Search for Flexane94 and you'll find a writeup on it. Basically use some thick all-thread, cut-off keg cups with holes drilled in the bottom, and pour the flexane into the keg cup. Probably need to use some caulk to seal the all-thread to the cup to keep the flexane from seeping thru.
