Cammed LS1s - Motor/Tranny Mounts? Just got my Magic Stick installed a few weeks ago, and as I well expected, the car shakes like a madman! I love the exhaust note, I love the idle, but I know that the car shaking so bad can't be good for it.
I've read that you guys put it different motor or tranny mounts to ease the shake. I'd like some more info on the subject.
What motor mounts are you guys using, and how do you like them? I'm having them professionally installed, so that is not an issue.
How many transmission mounts are there? Would you suggest I install this (these) along with the motor mounts? As I said, I'm simply looking to minimize the violent shake the cam has given the car.
Where can I source these pieces? How do you like yours, and would you recommend them? Thanks!

there is a lot of info on this topic available by searching....
I picked up a set of polly motor mounts and a trans mount from Thunder Racing ------>
I have not installed the trans mount yet, not sure if I even need it now. Installing the motor mounts was not fun, but I'd do it again in a heartbeat. Worth while mod

Why do you say it is a worthwhile mod? What should I expect after install of the poly mounts? Any info on how long they should last compared to stock? Any downsides to installing poly mounts?
Why is it worth while? Keeps the motor from jumping out the bay for one 
. Applies torque and horsepower to the wheels faster (less time) for 2.
Keep on searching - I had a lot of the same questions you did on this topic and I found a lot of the answers in the suspension/handling section.
