Hello forum. I have my car in pieces atm.👍🤠. The tranny mount is rotten/busted. I have to change it. 
What is a good replacement? Polyurethane is fine too.
Will this kit fit?👇thanks….

Should be a tab that lodges in the frame to stop rotation. Mine broke off so just cut that bolt off. then welded a new little plate to a nut for reinstall.

I believe matching the trans mount material to the engine mount material is important to avoid vibration issues?

Go with rubber. Poly will transmit  noises and you will think something is broken.
