Default All guys with solid motor mounts, how bad will it shake?

I'm about to put a set of sphoon solid motor mounts on this winter and a poly tranny mount. How bad do you think it will shake/vibrate?
I'm also putting in a comp 232/240 595/608 114 cam and a set of TEA 1.5 5.3's.
And a fast 90 set up.
This is NOT a DD. It is a week end worrior/ street/strip car. So I'm not really going for comfort. But I don't want it to blur my vision either. LOL.

Well, I have only had a poly trans mount, and it vibrated bad sometimes. Depending on engine RPM, you couldn' t see out the d@mn mirrors. Maybe it was just my car. I know you said weekend warrior, street, etc., so this may not be too bad for you.

^^^^ Same here... They have made the car more enjoyable to drive & it feels as if throttle response is a little better too!
