You will probably have an issue at some point, a few weeks of driving is hardly enough time, and just wishful thinking at this point. Sounds like you might be swapping one set of problems for another.

The difference in cost between tearing something up and the poly mounts is a no-brainer. I would recommend installing the poly mounts and just be done with it (do what is needed so you have the clearance required. The motor is not going to move that much under full-hammer).

However, if you keep the solid mounts, give us a report after 2,000 miles. Ultimately, I hope it works out for you. '-))
