Personally, I would only install these when you have to for power handling reasons- NOT to save weight. That would be like driving around on skinnies in a 13 second ride, it's just not necessary at that point. There are plenty of other ways to save weight.
i'm not really in it for the weight savings, just for the feel (responsiveness) i was hoping someone did a swap from poly to solid in a ls1 which i assume is far more tame then a 600hp carb motor. also i hear the poly mounts are a pain in the butt to install in the shell. solid mounts (i assume) would be more of a direct bolt in

I also don't know how they would work in a car with knock sensors, maybe someone else can chime in.
lol they don't... i believe you would have to override them with a tuning program of some sort
