with no balance shafts, poly mounts, and cams, almost any car would vibrate pretty good. My talon has all these and all poly suspension bushings, and it is a rattle trap just idling, let alone going down a bumpy road. Good thing it is only a weekend warrior.

When making a lot of power the block needs to flex a little bit. Otherwise your going to crack the block. Polly mounts are awesome!!

Explaine why your block needs to flex a bit.......? You cant say it does without explaining why it needs to. I highly doubt any damage would occur from a block that isnt allowed to move back and forth in its motor mounts.

I think he means the ability to move/poly mounts help absorb some of the vibrations and shock from launching etc..

Re: To who may have blown a tranny or scared they may blow one

What about a rear-drive, long stroke motor that shakes violently in stock form (with balance shaft elimination, of course). For me, there are poly mounts available but I've ridden in a quest with them and I think I lost a filling. What durometer are the mounts you guys have? I think there are 80 and 90 durometer mounts out there for me.
