Solid engine mount guys..
I just ordered some solid engine mounts, poly tranny mount and some subframe connectors. I'm doing some high milage maintenance so I figured I might as well get those things taken care of as well. I was just lookin to hear what people who run the solid engine mounts AND LIKE THEM have to say about them. I know my cars going to vibrate and blah and so on... whatever. But the fact is that I'm driving a muscle car. If I wanted to drive a car that rode smooth I'd get myself a Lincoln Towncar. Also.. If I had some hot chick in the pass. seat I think she'd be more likely turned on(not saying I need the help) by the feel of the power rather than smoothness of the drivetrain. Sorry but I dont think "OMG your V8 is sooo smooth... DO ME NOW!" would ever come out of a chicks mouth. Thanks for the input fellas.
Hope you are ready to go thru the car once a month and tighten loose bolts. Solid mounts are race parts only not DD. I have poly urethane mounts and have had to tighten some loose bolts. My buddy has solid on the motor and tranny and its very uncomfortable to drive. Cant use the mirrors, the steering wheel shakes alot, the seats vibrate loose they are just more of a pain then they are worth.
WHY would you do this? You have absolutly no need for this, and it isn't going to give you any worthwhile gain.
I love Poly bushings... I make my own and it works our great. I just made the LCA bushings over the weekend looks good so far. I obviously can drive it cause it's Fruckin snowing outside.

In my opinoin solid mounts suck, i baught my car with them and found out that the driver side mount actually sheared off because there wasn't enough movement. I dont know if this was just my case but I will never buy them again or own a car with them.
