Solids are only noticeable at idle. Once you get rolling down the road you won't ev en know they are there.

Personally I would stick with the polly. Try a search though, this topic has been covered a million times over in here.

Solids are pretty noisy with big cams. For street cars we typically recommend poly mounts, they tend to work a little better.

I run the poly mounts and have been very happy with them.

I looked on Ur site and all I found was solid mounts. Am I just lookin in the wrong spot?

No you are looking in the right part. Unfortunately we do not sell polyurethane motor mounts. You need to find some of the prothane brand poly mounts. They are best on the market right now.
