chassis flex will crack then break the trans mount, better to use poly, even better to use rubber...................

I used all poly mounts on body, trans, and engine. I was afraid of anything solid to do with the aluminum. I ran SFCs, and bolted them solid with angle iron to my frame and trans crossmember too. I didnt want any extra slack anywhere other than at the designed mounts. You should be fine though unless you have a high stall (3200+) or a manual you're going to be shifting hard.
