Poly bushings will give you a much harsher ride than del-alum ones will... the polys are so stiff and do not like the solid delrin/aluminum ones act like a bearing.. so bumps are transmitted dirrectly from the road to your ass...

i have del-alum bushings in my 79 malibu.. and aluminum bodumounts by the way, and the ride is awesome.. very honda like, wheels are 17´s btw..

if i were you id give SC&C a call, he is the guy to talk to when pro-touring a g-body...


if you are interested my setup is a s follows:
boxed frame. solid body mounts, SC&C front brace. GW del-alum front UCA & LCA, ATS spindles, touring classics C5 brakes, Currectrac rear UCA & LCA with johnny joints, 1-5/8'' hollow hotchkiss front sway bar, 1'' solid rear bar, GW springs, eibach shocks, 12:1 steering box....

sounds like a recepie for a race car.. but in all honesty it rides nice im my view... not bonejarring or harsh by any means... its no limmo either ;-)
