I found a website. http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/se...t=engine+mount
They list them for 58 a piece.. vs 170 at GM or even 117 at Scoggin Dickey.
Easier to stomach at least.

Sorry I haven't been here but you can mod a stock mount with a 3/8 bolt and never break it again. All you need to do is drill a hole through the center of the mount. Use a 3/8 bolt thats barely long enough to get a lock nut on it. Then run the nut down till you run out of threads and your done.
