So its been a couple days since I did it and its pretty nice. I basically took one of the REV motor mounts and cut about a inch of it off and cut a inch from the stock piece so that the stock piece became the new bottom of one of the REV mounts. I have little to no motor movement during hard shifts and its very tolerable as far as vibration is concerned. My theory was the small stock piece will soak up the little vibration while the rev piece stopped major movement. It still vibrates with ac but not nearly as bad. Pretty much perfect to me. Note I used wider side of the bushing for the 1in section so that it would sit more stable in the metal mount holder doohickey piece. I tried just one side stock and one side rev mount but it still had way too much motor movement for my liking. Oh and I totally used a bread knife to cut the bushings lol.

I use one 75A and one stock. There is no vibration at startup or when AC is on. And there is no motor movement during hard shifts. At first I used both 75A and it became unbearable.

How is your combo set up? Stock bushing in front or back?

When you look under the car, the rev mount is visible and the stock is inside.

Will probably be a couple of weeks, but I'll post pics when done.
No pic atm but picture this: One side of the mount With the widest portion of the 75A bushing cut off about a inch replace the inch of 75A with the widest part of a stock bushing a little over a inch. I use the widest part so that it will tuck into the metal part of the mount to keep the sandwich from moving around.
edit: tried to use asci but failed: ill draw a pic later.
diagram:
(top bolt)->(top plate)->(Modified 75A)->(1inch or so stock)->(Metal recess on mount)/(other side of mount metal)->(full 75A bushing)
I imagine one could do this to both 75A's and possibly eliminate more vibration at the cost of that much more movement.
Also it this puts the modified 75A hidden altho it dosent mater what side you do it on I think as mounts are identical.
