well i have a friend of my dad who owns a machine shop. so just for the heck of it im going to have one of mount bushings cut from aluminum/steel/something, to see how it feels.
which would be the best mount to have cut? in terms of least vibration, best performance, whatever.
this can just be BS talk or whatever. discuss.

If vibration is a concern dont bother with metal motor mounts.
Although I would like some alum sub frame bushings.
Have him fab up a side mount for the trans. Like the AWD cars for us FWD guys with big turbos.

Id stick with polyurethane.
Motor mounts, body mounts, bushings, etc
Unless you're building a race car
I made nylon bushings / mounts for my Camaro.
Not a good set up for DDing

vibration is of no concern. it would be nice to have a solid side mount. if someone wants to send me a decent one i'll see if he can do it. mine is so shot it wouldnt be good to mock off of, lol.
