Polyuerethane engine mounts
I have heard rumors these lead to a really uncomfortable ride due to engine vibration. Are they worth it in a daily driven car? I have a bit of power in the car and figured what the hell... but if its going to rattle my car to death it would be a lousy idea. Any one know first hand what these feel like?

I got em, I like em. Motor mounts don't matter. GM OEM are FINE for even 600hp engines, they might not last as long but who knows. My friend has a 70's Yenko Nova running in mean street. He's pulling high 9's and is running rubber mounts.
I just the poly because a friend had some he wasn't using. Now if you put solid mounts on then that's a different story.
