i make solid mounts, but i'm sure the main prob your having is due to junk robotic welds. alot of them do not use filler rod in the welds and just melt the 2 metals together. creates a weak spot at the weld.

humm....well i rewelded every weld on the exhaust today...and within a day i already have a new leak.....i wont be able to get it back on the lift till thursday so yea.....pretty ticked off....i think im deff gnna buy a damper and if that doesent work then buy some solid mounts.....
I installed the engine damper and the plus was that there is less movement in the engine under torque. The down-side is that any engine vibration has an easier path to the frame -- more noticeable on decerleration.
Energy makes good mounts -- stiffer than OEM but not solid... IIRC.
