    I know the guy personally. He pulled the motor to do a full restoration with a correct numbers matching 383 that came in his car. His car is currently just a shell. He was going to keep the motor for another project but he is wanting an 87 suzuki lt500 "quadzilla" that I have. And he said he was willing to let the motor go for what I have. He has all the receipts and and info on his motor and his car is well known in the area.

    He used stock mounts but they broke. That's when poly-locs were used.

    Everyone I've talked to said poly locs cause a major vibration.

    I use stock mounts and a Schumacher torques strap.  Best of both worlds.
    Polyloks have failed in past.
