Default poly engine mounts..vibration? anyone with experience?

I was wondering if anyone was running the Poly engine mounts? If so did you experience any vibration after installation?

Thanks Tom

ahhh.... yes at idle, its not a side to side rocking vibration, more of one you can feel at your feet from the motor being planted better.

i just put mine from PFADT in last week and love them

is it bad enough to vibrate the side mirrors and gets worse if you rev the engine? to say 4000-6000.

no, it doesn't shake the mirrors around... and once you get goin the vibration goes away.

no vibrations in the 4-6k rpm range

they do take a little work to install, getting the old mounts out is the biggest problem, putting the new ones in is a simple. the drives side went in and out in no time, but the passenger side i had to remove the header to make room for the old motor mount to come out

Thanks Tom
Tom Ive had them for awile with no issues. The difference is even with a big lopey cam the engine sits solid with no shaking when you snap the throttle the whole front of the car will twist and not the engine. Anything is possible but I doubt thats your problem.
