The Stillway brackets are forged aluminum therefore it will not break like other brands.

Does anyone have experience with the stillway dampener?

Engine dampers and motor mount inserts work to control two different kinds of engine movement. They are complimentary mods, although its not recommended to use an engine damper if your motor mounts are shot.

i think that it would be a great enhancement to the vehicles if it helped smooth the shifts at higher rpms.

I just ordered an Ingalls Stiffy last night. It looks to be of top quality and I know that they make some great suspension products like their camber correction kit for the Integra. I'll let you guys know how the Stiffy works out. I can't believe I just typed that sentence
