BMR motor mounts poly, solid, or stick with stock

My current mounts are fine, clean, not leaking but I am looking for a quick weekend project.



I had solid mounts on a Big Block older Camaro and loved them.



Any thoughts on the BMRs?


Poly or solid upgrade?


Current build has 6 spd, JRE Cam, Headers, 10 inch lower, id 850, Ported TB, 5Inch CAI etc

Well that job sucked, took forever to get to the bolts, had to put them together in the car since they wouldn’t fit built outside of the car. Had to drop the drivers header.

Definitely feel a difference. Can feel the vibrations from clutch engagement etc.
The shake of the car from the cam is definitely reduced and absolutely no engine movement. The negative is the low level vibration / rumble from everything else.

Guess we’ll see if they get form pliable over time.

I like the solid mount. Made it a bear to install the shifter since the tranny wouldn't drop. lol

MGW shifter was one of the best things I put in my car hands down. Have never missed a shift since and it just feels amazing.

I think there are 2 for sale in the classified, I just don't want to spend another 3 hours on my back and have my hands look like I tried to put socks on a bobcat with those clips for minimal gain...

LMAO, that is about right. It took numerous beers and a lot of cuss words to get mine installed. Went a lot quicker after getting the car farther off the ground.
