Should be. After getting it all sorted out I'm expecting a 11.xx timeslip n/a. I still haven't ruled out a small nitrous kit for a future try at 10's before building a dart based motor. All with a steel hood/full weight car. While staying streetable. Don't know if I'll get there but that's the plan. I'll be happy with 12.-12.10's in that configuration. Can always take weight out later if I need/want to.

At about 400rwhp and 1.45-1.49 sixty foots i ran into durability issues with poly mounts. Other than that they work good, no vibrations or anything but i really cant say that my solid mounts have a ton of vibration either.

Are you planning on Dragweek this year? A few local guys are putting together some nasty turbo cars for this year. I'm looking at the energy suspension vert mounts and think those will work.

Energy mounts with 3/4 spacer for cobra manifold. It's funny with the hood open it looks like there is no way in hell it will clear, but it does without issue. NVH was noticeably increased. I think I will go to a rubber trans mount when I swap trans next year.

Yes i am planning on doing it, as long as i get registered. Whether i will be ready or not is another question... I have a bunch to do before hand, rewiring/relocating my holley box, finishing my new transmission install etc etc etc, and on top of all that we are trying to buy a new house this year. Lots to do, not much time.

I have urethane mounts--I believe Prothane, that I put on awhile back. No hood issues and I didn't find any increase in vibration/noise to be noticeable.
