we do you can feel every thing from the motor and it shakes the car. But its not that bad and we had to use them so that is the reason we went with them. why are you gone with them?

I'd just use a good set of poly mounts if it's a street strip car

Is having solid motor mounts bad if it's a DD car compared to the poly mounts?

i was always told to have a poly trans mount since the tranny needs some deflection
