I have run them in the past on high horsepower carb applications. They work fine.

I would be apprehensive about running them with a knock sensor. They could work fine, but they might also cause some false knock.

The urethane ones are the best of both worlds. Strong but with some damping ability too.

well, motor plates will tie it into the chassis more, so....just feel alittle bit better about them. Im going to have to see if I can build a set around my turbo kit though, otherwise, it'll be solid mounts it is. I dont really plan, i just go with the flow.
