Street car run poly or stock mounts. Theres no reason you can't run solid mounts other than youl'l get a lot more vibration. If you have an extremely powerfull engine pushing 500hp it might be time to look into a solid mount though.

Agree, but my threshold would be quite a bit more than 500hp.

I should have said 500 rwhp, At that point with an LT1 they are most likely using forced induction, which with a blower they are only a pully change away from 600 or 700 and they are also looking at a lot of torque at that level with any form of forced induction.
