This paper reports on the analysis of mechanisms concerning the engine exciting force and the rotational couple of forces. Because the new V10 engine has the biggest power and displacement which is 441kw and 30 litters respectively, its exciting force of 2.5th and 5th orders are very large. On the other hand, as the V-bank angular is 80 degrees, the additional 1st order yawing vibration is also occurred by the generation of the rotational couple of forces. So, the optimum design is needed to reduce these vibrations by the frequency response analysis when these forces are added to the engine crank shaft. Finally, the vibration level could be reduced much lower than the lower-powered engine by the optimum design of engine mounting by using the FEM and the adoption of the new mechanism for the cancellation of a rotational couple of force.
