Alrighty, Ive got an intake, and my headers & exhaust are en route. Somewhere in the near future, ill likely get a BBTB, upper & lower IM and some of those nice lil Mega Force pulleys from ARK, and Im definately going to want to upgrade the front & rear mounts.

Heres the question: Should I get Bushing Inserts, or replacement mounts altogether? Also, should I just do front/back instead of both since Im going NA?

get full mounts... inserts suck balls

I bought the full mounts from everybodys favorite, Shark Racing, and they're the only way to go. No hassle no fuss just bolt 'em in and go. Price was $200 but worht it imo. I'm going front and rear, have got Nxtgen stage 1 S/C at the moment, so we'll see how they act. Still in the s/c install stage.

Get the full mounts and do both of them. When I had just I/H/E I broke a poly rear mount at the track from bad wheel hop and I had both the front and rear mounts in. I replaced it and it hasn't happened again. You need both mounts even if you're N/A.

When you install the front and rear engine mount do you notice any difference in handling characteristics of the Tib? Is it very noticable?

I second that. From what ive heard, it reduces wheel hop, and gets better TQ to the wheels...

OH! And Ive got another question: How d'ya install 'em? Do you need to take out the engine, or can you just unbolt & replace 'em one at a time (Theres 4 mounts from what i can see...)?

You're only replacing the front and rear so you can do them one at a time. The engine won't move since there are 3 other mounts holding it in place.
