With two solid mounts there will be lots of vibration and the engine and chassis will be loading each other up with heating, cooling and flexing. Solid on the left and regular on the right would be better than two solid. Maybe an OK solution if drag racing but this is the handling section. I'll suggest best in a handling application is an interlocking or through bolt poly mount on the left and regular poly on the right. The interlocking left mount protects from breakage on heavy acceleration in low gear, at least enough for a handling car. Vibration may be a little worse than OE rubber but not bad. Besides... repop rubber mounts seem to be very low quality now so best to stay away.

But this was on a heavy '67 Newport so the weight of the car absorbed a lot of the vibrations. Transmount was stock rubber. BigBlockMopar.com
