From the pic it looks good, but it is kinda faded. Shouldn't take much to get the oxydisation off but i guess it isnt that bad. No rust whatsoever

And yeah, it was auto. The bitch can go now!!! So quick, it feels like it gained so much hp. Now all I need now is some solid motor mounts and exaust and it should go even quicker...but for now I'm overwhelmed.

They are for use in PURE Drag Cars, that have the engine reinforced into place in other ways such as a torque brace, etc.

They give no "play", and will damage the front cover.
Remember, your engine is held in place by four little bolts on the front cover.

The stock bushings are fine, maybe Poly's if you can find 'em.

Solid is not good for a street driven car. You're gonna tear up the engine and everything connected to it.

Even on my Turbo application, I am using new stock rubber ones, with a RB Torque brace,

I was told not to listen to you by my mechanic, lol.

I can give you his name so you can pm him your comments. His name is: guru

I'm sure that will be interesting
