motor mounts

I have longtube headers and the tsp catted y pipe and ive read that longtubes tend to bang around a bit is there any way to prevent that without replacing the stock motor mounts?

thanks

Install the polys, You will hear guys say solid mounts but they suck, when I first swapped I used some spohn solids and hated them all the engine noise amd movement transferred into the cabin. and If you do any tranny work expect an even bigger hassle cause those solid mounts wont let the trans drop, so You have to loosen them up too. I swapped to the polys and love them only way to go.

Motovative's Solid Mounts get rid of the problems that the Spohn mounts have. They put the motor back to stock height so theres no tranny problems.

Those are my choice, I just got them in the mail a couple days ago, waiting for warmer weather to install. Looking forward to it.
