Update on first page.
I believe he is running a 480 with a powerglide.

not real car, not driven by it's own power.
he's full of ****.
good writeup, so far. waiting to see the bver install.[/quote]
Thanx, He said he just got done getting his interior installed and didnt want to drive it because he had his son with him. I doubt he will drive it in the future seeing as though he has 5 other classics to choose from.
I will start the burning tommorow. Could you pm me to discuss this a little more?
I just googled this and saw your post on lextreme. how do you like them compared to the solid mounts?

The rear upper control arms will be a pain I can guarantee you that. It's got a really really really weird bushing in it. You'll find out after you burn it out. But getting the outer metal sleeve out is the hardest part, because it only go in one way, cause the end is like mushroom shaped on to the aluminum arm. So there won't be enough part of the control arm to hold on to to press the sleeve out. What we did was chisel it a bit so the "cap" end would separate from the arm and there would be enough surface to jam it while pressing out the sleeve.
You'll understand what I'm saying once you start working on it. Good luck.

Really no comparision as solids are for race cars and poly gives you a great solution for road going cars and cars that see some track use as we have these in 1krwhp supras running in the single digits in the 1/4 so it really is the best of both worlds
There is a pretty big thread here with feedback on them and can also be purchased via aliga as he is a paid vendor here.

I hope you didn't use the aluminum bushings. They are terrible.

This is as close as I could get on a search..
I'm about to order Drift Motions full upper/lower front/rear bushing kit but is says for 92-96 only. My gut says it's the same but will these install into my 97 the same without any modification?
