Any stock replacement mounts you get from the parts store will be junk, anchor and other brands.  I worked at a parts store while in college, they will fit correctly but are not constructed the same as the OEM. 

I have a DS HRparts n stuff with no problems.  Fit was perfect.  I assume they are still in business.

I know 8 sec cars with HR poly mounts that leave with over 15lbs of boost on a transbrake. They never needed gimmicks like that or ties-downs.

Ed - we have a paying vendor that sells torque straps - Please refrain from talking bad about them.

Never torque strapped, never will.

Get the HR mount and call it a day.

Is he thinking about paying to be a vendor, too?  :D

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.
