I used the solid rubber in my car, I like them. The hydraulic mounts go bad very quit. I had new hydraulic mount in my car and they didnt last two years.

I want Chuck W mounts but couldnt afford them when I swapped in the HO motor. So I had to settle for the solid rubber, they're ok for the money. Mine were $27 a peice.

The factory mounts are filled with frog jelly to dampen those awful nasty engine vibrations that everyone complains about (not). It leaks out real quick. Use solid rubber. If they don't tell you in the catalog, go for the cheap option, it will be solid. El Cheapo solids beat the cr*p out of OEM.
