Looked at my revshift mounts and I actually have the 95A poly. Wondering if I should install them or get the 80A inserts.

Sheesh, is it that bad?

It's worse. I'm only running one mount and at 650 rpm, you'd think the engine is coming apart. I've driven numerous vehicles with aftermarket poly mounts and never experienced anything like this. I will try and get a video and see if it comes thru.

80a Revshift ... generally very pleased. I've not even raised my manual trans idle.

I’ve run solid aluminum engine and trans mounts and they were super casual with a stock dual mass flywheel. Swapped to a single mass flywheel and it was unbearable. I had to switch back to oem trans and engine mounts to decouple the vibration the dmfw was previously damping. You basically pick smfw and oem mounts or dmfw with stiff mounts. Not a good idea to mix and match IMO.

I ordered the 80A engine mounts and will be trying both the 95A and 80A trans mounts at an idle of 900+. I plan to get a chassis mounted shifter so the stiffer the better with those.
