Why poly engine mounts? These firmer mounts will provide a more direct connection between the drivetrain and the chassis. Less engine movement benefits the vehicle by:
Less wheel-hop
Improved handling dynamics
Longer Life
In general, one should expect increased noise and vibration intrusion into the cabin with ALL polyurethane engine mounts. There are different durometer firmnesses available for different levels of rigidity. While harder poly is harsher and great for racing, it should be noted that softer durometers are still going to be significantly firmer than stock engine mounts.
65A and 75A shipping this week...85A and 95A to be produced based on demand.Originally Posted by Heeltoeauto.com
Got XLR8 Performance engine mounts and need new bushings? The Fastline Performance polyurethane engine mount bushings have a revised shape to more greatly resist "donuting" or stretching over time. These mount bushings are made from high quality, durable polyurethane. They will not corrode or degrade over time like rubber.Why poly engine mounts?

Would these fit in the 2nd Gen cl/tl mounts?

We need to sell more of these 65/75 before we can make more.

Sounds like the same thing XLR8 said when he had mounts made. I will just assume anything above 75 will never be made because there is no demand. Originally Posted by MrHeeltoe

Everything on my car is custom, just one more thing to get made.

This is probably because the 75 are really fairly effective. Are you planning to drag race your car with sticky tires and launch the car aggressively?Originally Posted by brian6speed
