I've seen countless guys use these bushing for engine mounts, and the bolts fit nice and snug in there, no slop, so chatter I'm positive won't be an issue, as far as vibration and harshness, well I guess the dynamat will have to dampen that from inside the cab plus the more solid urethane compared to rubber will help transfer more energy to the wheels.... no need to be hatin' I wish I had your motor, that's all together another project for me, I need more money

well I need to finish the trans crossmember, then work my way back doing the other crossmember, got to finish up one more body mount then cut the holes in all of them, after that I'd like to bring it home, and do the rear susp there, but I may just do it here at the shop. So.... I don't know, not too long a week or so?

This project is amazing, please for that frames sake double check everything, I see that the right side (LCA?) bracket is only tacked, donno if you want it that way or not but dont want to see it missed.
