OK, so I'm building a nice PT road car. As I've said before I plan to drive the thing 50K a year for my work. I will be talking to reps on the cell and making money while I drive. How much road noise will transmit into the car from these hard control arm bushings? Do I need to somehow make the stock rubber fit? Is poly an alternative, or a improvement?

I have a 68 camaro that has solid frame mounts and Del-a-lum bushing is the A-arms arms, and the front spherical bearing in the leaf springs and the car rides fine I daily drive it rain or shine (over 13,000 miles this year) and race it at many autocross events, the noise level is fine, its on par with my Porsche 944 for interior noises

the mufflers will be 3 times louder!!! unless your planning on putting an Ecotech in it. oh and the tires don't forget them. i wouldn't worry about the CA bushings.
