    I went for the PowerFlex diesel one which is just shoreA 60 hardness
    Only can feel a slight increase in engine vibration and according to the missus it's unnoticeable
    It normally dies down a little after running in but that all depends on what hardness you went with

    Not sure about the grinding part thought because I have a different mount than yours
    They normally don't need altering before fitting

    Did you find when you first installed it that it was very rough? mine is so rough on reverse, and engaging/starting to move.

    It's just a ShoreA 60 hardness mount which is really soft for mountings
    So no, the mount didn't make it rough even when I first installed it
    It's all about the hardness

    Gear changes and take off are all smooth without the sloppiness on the oem mount
