I've been running solid mounts for years with no issues. I don't notice any vibration in my big-cammed engines that's any worse than a stock mount. No broken parts. No problem with oil pump. No ring seal problem. No broken tranny tailshaft housing. No harmonics. None of the wive's tales about solid mounts. Only difference is that I'm not replacing ripped-out rubber mounts every 3 months...

I run solid engine mounts and a poly mount for the gearbox.
I have only had it for a year now but it works great for me.
The reason for me to go solid was mainly to make the frame more rigid.
To be able to have less clearance between the air cleaner and the hood without contact was a bonus.
