well as my car is producing 410nm of torque and in future gaining more when putting my foot down and then letting my foot up, the engine moves with alot of force, so to make sure it never decide to rip of one of the engine mounts and after mike suggested it i thought it might be good to investigate if they do some and what was involved!

surely if you 'solid' up a mount all you'll do is move the load to the next weakest point....... engine rocks less, mount moves not a lot - bolt shears.
