To my knowledge the only difference is the vert mounts let the motor sit lower then notch and GT mounts. I am not positive, but you might be able to go to a parts store that has both and physicaly hold them to see if there is another difference.

the vert mount...my personal choice has less rubber and holds up to higher horsepower applications
