RE: solid motor mounts??
If you've got problems with breakin the stock rubber ones then solids might be the best choice. If your not makin huge power then I guess they will hold up. Mine are stock, and still working [:@] Will switch over to solids if the motor ever comes out again

using solids on a car that probably doesn't have subframes is going to twist your frame like a pretzel for a DD and make it very uncomfortable under moderate/heavy acceleration. Unless you've got a serious load of power or are making a track-only car. I would advise against it.
Try polyurethane mounts instead of rubber

I use solids as well. Vibration really isn't that bad. If you had a cam with 250 duration at .050 sure your car is going to shake like crazy but it would shake pretty bad with rubber mounts too.
