Anyone running solid mounts?
 

I finally found some 2" setback plates but they are solid (well they have the poly ones but they sit the motor too high)

Am I going to regret going solid mounts on a twin turbo wild cam car?

I have solid mounts on my turbo LS and didn't notice any increase in vibration. I do have a mild cam though...

It is my understanding that solid mounts will cause false hits on your knock sensors.

I'm running solid mounts as well. I didn't notice much of a difference either. Also, make sure you run a poly trans mount I have heard you can crack the tranny case tailshaft if you run all solid.

Thanks guys. Ill try the solid.

By using the solid I get that extra 1/4" drop down on my motor. I really need that so my manifold clears the hood.

With twin turbos, I really think you will need solid mounts. Poly or Rubber will give way eventually.

Question for my general knowledge...aren't you stressing the block by running solid mounts? I thought you wanted the motor to be able to "flex" or have some amount of movement. I've heard of a lot of sprint blocks cracking due to solid motor mounts.

I heard the same thing.

Maybe run a solid on the drivers side and poly on the passenger side? I have a solid on the drivers side and rubber on the passenger and the engine moves to much for my taste.

What if you had either a front or mid engine plate that had poly mounts at the frame mounting points? This would significantly decrease the moment and still provide dampening.
