are they solid mounts? if not that's always an option. this torque link will act like solid mounts when installed but is easy to take off if you don't want the car to shake itself to pieces on the street, but you might not wanna use it if you don't wanna chain the engine down

Yeah i have always seen older cars with chain downed engines because of the torque they make its a cheap and easy fix too.

Try Competition Engineering's engine torque link . $54.95 from Summit, part number CEE-4010. I run this on my 92. It can be easily disconnected for easy cruising on the street. Might work for you.
