Default engine mount advice

Hi i'm new here. i'm assembling a 1971 camaro street legal drag car that is going to be pushing between 400-450 HP maybe more for one of our customers at work. He also has a 1973 camaro that i believe is a numbers matching car with a slightly modified 350 in it ( he still has all the original engine components so it is still a numbers matching car) what i am wondering though is he has two sets of engine mounts for the 71 (1 solid and 1 polyurethane) and he can't deside which one to go with. any recomendations? the car is going to be mainly street driven.

Go with the poly. The solids are going to transfer a lot more vibrations through the body. And the poly has an interlock that won't allow the mount toseparate anyway.

well i see one pic did you try to put up more than one cause i can only see one.and for some reason when they are on here they show up as a red X inside of a box,but you can still see them. if your having trouble you might want to tell ADMIN so they can either fix the problem or show you what you are doing wrong.
