Noticeable. Not dramatic, but noticeable. If you do the base and underhood together it'll make a greater perceptible difference. Throw in a poly front motor mount and you'll feel like the steering wheel and shifter are welded to the drivetrain...

I already have the Speed Source underhood bushings, Buschur front/rear engine mounts and AMS trans/cam gear mounts. I've been noticing that the shifter feel in/out of the gates is not as crisp as I'd like, so that's why I was inquiring.

I got my brass base bushings on ebay for about $17 awhile ago.

I have poly ones for the base shifter and Kartboys for the underhood linkage and there is a discernable difference but not much. I was apprehensive about going with metal ones due to possible freeze up.
