Solid mounts will set off your knock sensors.

Do you have any proof or personal experience with this? Have you ran solid mounts? I have ran Spohn Solids MYSELF and never had any problems with knock sensors.

No it will not work because it is designed to work with the stock clamshells. I believe that spohns kmember is the only one available that will work with both. You could always go with poly mounts, which imo are just as good as solids.

I believe thats more of a myth than anything. I have seen a couple people post on here that run solids, and they have no problems whatsoever. No thing i have heard is that it makes pulling your transmission a pain in the ***.
