	I read in the TT catalog that one reason that headers do not last
as long is due to this torque movement of the engine.  Will this motor
mount eliminate this concern? I would like to buy a good header but I also
dont want it to go south after a few months.  And while I am on the
subject, I would like everyones opinion on headers.  Who make the best
ones, how much, how necessary, etc, etc.  I will greatly appreciate all
input.
