I have pfadt mounts on mine and like them a lot, no issues whatsoever... I think you can still buy them under their new parent company, I saw that lmr was making their own version of them at one point, and I even found some on ebay from an unknown maker that looked nice for quite a bit less

The stockers are fine, but if you have headers, I recommend an aftermarket motor mount heat shield instead of the puny OE shields.
I use the ones from Vibrant Performance (part #25695). They do an excellent job and are well made (they use their Sheet-Hot insulating material). Shop around for the best price.

I used the Hinson solid mounts. They're a nice product.

Thank you for the purchase. We do appreciate the opportunity to work with you and know you will enjoy our mounts. When you can upgrade to our transmission mount as well. It makes a very noticeable difference when paired with the engine mounts.

Also while you into making everything better, check out our NEW HINSON short throw shifter if your a manual car.
