There isn't a good quality mount available from any parts store that I know of anymore. I've been round and round with the junk from India and Korea. The rubber is bad and the metal parts don't fit.

I'm going through an issue with a 94 LeBaron trans mount right now and I suspect in the end the kid who owns the car will end up buying the factory mount for $200.

Torch out the old rubber on the drivers side and weld it up solid.

Moroso sells solid mounts, but I would just stick with the drivers side.

I second this opinion - been trying to source OEM style BB mounts. I get the same #%$^& part number from India. The steel nub doesn't line up with the hole. There must be thousands but the sales rep swears they never had any returned. ^#&*%* Sent back twice to Mancini before I gave up, once to Summit for the same reason.

I am going to need new motor mounts for the 340 to go in my Challenger when done. Jim, are you saying that you can't get a good motor mount that looks like factory any longer? How different do the Shumacher mounts look from stock?

Thanks, Joe
