Is 60mm the same diameter as the stock blocks? Anyone know?

I'd think that the originals are about 60 or 70mm, definately bigger than 50mm though.

They should be 75mm diameter. Any smaller you run the risk of them punching through the floor pan.

They are not large, the rubber body mounts as std have a 75mm round washer where the body sits.

...The mounts are 70mm. So min is this size . 80 is better.
