Default Motor mounts. Biscuit type any good?

I'm in the process of trying to find some suitable motor mounts.

The chassis to which I'm mounting my L33 engine has a flat mounting face i.e. parallel to the ground. I have looked at various motor mounts and the mounts I believe to be called 'biscuit' type seem to be the most straight forward solution. Like these

However, somebody said to me the other day that these mounts would not be very strong due to their design.

Any comments on this?

Has anybody sucessfully used these type of mounts on an LS engine with big power?

Thanks in advance.

ok, I'm guessing then that nobody is using these type of mounts. I can't seem to find any swaps or builds using these type either so I can only guess that they are not the best mount to use.

I have seen many hockey puck mounts used...the gto ctsv biscuit mounts go bad frequently from what I've read.

Thanks Brian,

I can only presume they are a bad design and best avoided.
