Default First Gen motor mounts

Just curious what motor mounts people are using in their first gens? I've got stock replacement rubber ones that are about a year old. The new engine move so an awful lot more than the old one did. And I'm not feeling all that corfortable with it.

Some aftermarket mounts also don't have a deep enough hole for the center bolt to seat properly. Rupita-rupita-rupita

I used the Poly mounts from butler. Fit nice, but I've only had my bird together a few weeks, not many miles on the mounts.

I use the Butler poly/SS mounts in my racecar and the only complaint is that one of my 2" header tubes melted one of the corners, but didn't interfere with the function. They work good.

We used the Butler poly mounts. Had to trim a little sliver off the one corner of the mount on the passenger side. It was rubbing on the long branch.
