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

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

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.
