: Solid mount is not recomended. Engine torque will cause the motor to twist but the trans wont be able to because of the solid mount. Sooner or later something will give. Unless you always drive like you got an egg under the gas pedal. Plus alot of drivetrain noise & vibration will be transfered to the frame.
Do you have enough room to put a 1/2 inch piece of rubber between the tranny and the mount? If so, use a piece of tire tread. This will help...not suggested to do it for long though.
How well did the install go? Know where I can find an AOD for my 289???
