Default ride hieght and motor mounts?

was lookin at gettin ether poly motor and trans mounts or solid motor mounts and poly trans so i was lookin and reading on this about them and all and its seems to be 50/50 of i hate them they shake the crap out of my car and i love them there awesome, my thought on this when reading the diff threads that i didnt see mentioned is that they say the solids raise the engine a good inch about

well the people with the poly/solids that shake them to death, is your car stock suspension or do u have like a 1-2inch lowering kit that could be messin with drive shaft angles and such

and same to others, people with out a problem with solids or polys are u stock suspension/ride height or are u lowered at all?

looking at gettin new trans mount and probably new motor mounts cause of excess of moving of the drivetrain/engine while driving so was wonderin before i bought, was lookin at solid motor mount then ether new stock tranny or poly trans mount, which ever yall think will be better

Poly motor mounts and stock tranny mount with stock suspension. My car is cammed so it does shake a little. Honestly it hardly noticeable. I stayed with the stock tranny mount because the poly mount made alot of vibrations in the car and was VERY annoying.

solid motor poly trans with a big cam here. car shakes just a bit, its really hardly noticable. my gf likes it cuz it puts her to sleep coming home from the track or meets. i love them and how tight they make everything feel. i woulda done it sooner if i knew it was gonna be this nice. car is 75k mile stock suspension. im getting completely adjustable everything here in the future with coilovers and i plan on dropping the nose a tad, so ill let you know how that goes
