lol.. thanks for the reply about the vibration.... Got me thinking so I did a search and think I found my answer on a diff polly mount site:
"Is there excessive increase in vibration with the stronger urethane motor mounts?
This is the most commonly asked question concerning our motor mounts. There have been no precise measurements of vibration done compared against the stock motor mounts. We do not recommend these mounts on automatic FD's. There is a big difference in the load characteristics that increases vibration as a result of the automatic transmission. But we do recommend them for all manual drive high-performance. Verbal descriptions from one driver to the next can read like night and day sometimes. We describe it as noticeable only at low rpms, when starting out, but nothing that is really excessive or uncomfortable. Most customers agree and are happy with the results, but there are a handful of drivers who report that the vibration is excessive to them. So use your own judgement. There is going to be some increase in vibration due to the characteristics of having a stiffer motor mount. This should be expected by design. The stock rubber mounts do reduce more vibration but in doing so they do not last very long when repetitive stress is placed upon them. Many performance modifications sacrifice some degree of streetability comfort while enhancing performance. This is the choice that drivers must make when making goals and expectations. But again, we standby the description as being minimal and more responsive to the driver."
