I used the V8 bushings from Moss because I did not like the 
murmurings that polywally things would be noisy.   This despite me 
soundproofing my GT V8 with a lot of stuff (my own developed 
soundproofing which is 1/4 the price of Dynamat and twice as 
effective).  They are fine after 5 or more years and no signs of 
deterioration.

It may be that those pollywally things are pushed by suppliers 
because the markup is so high.   You can make them yourself for 
pennies so in bulk they probably are less than a penny each but sold 
for relatively big wallops of cash.
