if you suffer from a banging y-pipe poly motor mounts can help you solve that issue. they reduce motor flex on the k-member under load...which in turns doens't swing the y-pipe toward the undercarriage.

Solids are not the way to go. The block will distort on hard launches. Don't get the poly mounts unless you are trying to correct something. Stockers are fine.

the prothane motor mounts i have came from thunder and they work awesome. the shifter doesnt move around anymore and the engine is dead still. i'm pretty sure they cause LESS vibration as well, not sure how this works, but it definatly feels better. i'm also running a new OEM trans mount.
the synergy(?) suspension piece from autozone is a great piece but some people report vibration and ditch for an OEM. only problem w/ the OEM is that they cost over 70$

Unfortunately, I found some threads saying that the prothanes were equally as harsh. Oh well, as long as this new tranny mount solves my y-pipe banging...

i have TSP duals on my car. the leg that connects to the drivers side header runs LESS THAN 1/4" from that floorboard crossmember that i forgot to flatten out
it NEVER HITS THE FLOOR, even running 315 nitto drags and 4.11 gears with a dead hook 1st gear rhomp
so yes i'd say the poly motor mounts work pretty well
