Poly Flex mounts are not made of rubber. They are made of plastic or something very much like plastic that probably absorbs energy. And many people coment how smooth my engine is.
Phil,
Replacing most things on a boat is a golden opportunity to get something better.

True, but most times require something else to be changed modified. Had a water pump pulley replaced, which required a new water pump and motor mount modified. Anyway I try to replace with the same or closest to it. So what is wrong with metal on metal? The Eagles are sort of metal on metal with the metal spacers and metal motor mounts.
