There are at least three different motor mounts used on a B body with a B engine, depending on year.
Would you like us to guess which one you need?

Yes but lots of people making poly mounts.Early ones like my 65 were the hardest to find in poly.Now they are pretty common.I agree a year would help but its not necessary to say use polys.Most new rubber are junk. Rocky

If it's a stock engine I don't think you need poly and you will feel more vibration from them. I'm speaking from experience. I've had both poly and stock rubber mounts and I can feel the difference. But yes, they will last a lot longer in poly, and you may want to get poly if you have a HP engine. Check energy suspension and prothane. I've bought from both.

I have had good luck with Mity Mounts, cheaper than poly but still pricey compared to stock rubber.

You could also see if anyone has NOS ones. You know they'll be good quality if the rubber hasn't dried out.

I would choose poly for anything as current rubber quality seems very poor. Thru bolt or interlocking type at least on driver's side if you will run it hard.
I have a 15 YO set of Schumacher poly mounts and no issues on a warm 496.

That's exactly what I did on Kayse's 69 factory 383 Dart GTS.
I had seen the post about doing that on here before.
