Poly stuff is a little stiffer, and lasts a little longer than the rubber stuff. I don't know if I would mix poly with rubber tho. If your only doing two of the mounts, I would go with the rubber, or just replace all of the mounts. Yer gonna hafta loosen all of them anyway to get the body lifted enough to replace the two anyway...

My bet would be with the poly..only because of where you live and the high humidity and salt in the air..the ride will get harder but heck its a vette..unless you don't care about doing them again in over 20 years from now I would go with the rubber kind..and go with replacing them all..not really that much more work..
