Here's the Setup I used as recommended from PeterTheScirocco:
Poly Front mount
Techtonics Tuning Rear Race mount
HD Driver and Passenger side mounts (stiffer than the TT HD mounts, I
was told)
... And I love it! NO vibrations, and power gets to the wheels fast.
Look up his website, <www.thescirocco.com> for some more details. I
bought from him a couple months ago and I couldn't be happier with the
transaction.
BTW, I had a badly cracked front crossmenber, so I installed Eric's
<www.vintagewatercooleds.com> A1 Crossmember Brace, had my cracks
"spackled" up (Man Show joke), and now I'm much more confident about my
structural integrity field.
