That(1 ea)of upper mounts should only be replaced with the Poly type mount, and I don't think it matters which one you replace just as long as the stock mount thats left in there along with it is in good shape. The lower engine mounts should probably be left all stock although I think replacing the front most one to a solid rubber mount wouldnn't be that bad as far as the vibrations are concerned. Then if you you wanted to, simply replace the trans mount with either a new stock one or the poly one.
At present I only have one poly upper mount(front one) and I can't tell the difference in vubration. I will add the trans(poly)mount shortly and I don't see it effecting things in a negative way at all.
That should do it and help keep some of the smoothness(if there is such a thing in these cars)that doesn't seem to already exist so in reality, one should say screw it and go full poly anyways.
See Ya,
Phil
