Default Motor mounts...Stock? Aftermarket?

What are yall using for motor mounts with these turbo systems? Stock? Poly? Solid? Custom?

I'll be putting in an LS1 aluminum block, VSR 78/75......shooting for 10's. if stocker are holding up, then I'll get a set of them. I know on my old 86 truck, the brand new rubber mounts lasted about 2 minutes until I pulled them apart with the boost.

Thanks

My stock ones have gotten me through everything including 12psi and 180k.

I dont like the idea of solid. If poly is the only available option, thats what I do.

theoretically a solid motor mount would make launching better because there is less torsional flex. I would be curious to see a before and after timeslip.

Poly trans mount with either to keep the tail end straight.
Solid motor mount if clearances are tight and you can't let the motor torque over and hit something.
