Did this on my friends Nova redtop. Didn't notice any difference. But use some good quality clear Silicon.

Tigerseal is loads better than silicone. Silicone is useless as it's actually more flexible than the rubber part of the mounts. I've done all 3 mounts on my Nova with Tigerseal. It makes them stiffer and does give a little more vibration but not so much the car is rattled to bits. I found it was worth while and noticed the difference as it stopped the engine rocking when changing gear which was causing the exhaust to catch on the gear lever housing.
