2)fuel pressures
3)injector seals(highly recommend this one)
4)cam to crank timing
5)plugs
6)clean out thottle body
7)check for vaccum leaks and clogged crankcase vent hoses & pcv
Balance issues:
1)faulty or failing pressure plate
2)flywheel failing or needs to be retorqued
I could go on, but you get the idea. That Apikol mount was one of the best mods done to our car. You might consider doing the Stern rear diff bracket bushings.

Yeah man, I understand completely. These are holding up great, the Apikol line is really...
one of top notch manufacturing and attention to detail. These were only released last year although I think they will do great.

Not necessarily the culprit. The slot is because certainly not all of the pieces manufactured...
for all of the thousands of cars made are identical. You can use this to sort of fine tune though possibly and make sure everything is lining up properly.
