I wouldn't pay more than a couple hundred dollars for labor on a job like that. I have done so many that I can get them done in a couple hours but I would expect most shops to charge 3-4 hours of labor. I personally would recommend using the Energy Suspension or Prothane polyurethane motor mounts which will in conjunction with your factory motor mount clam shells. These motor mounts will offer good movement control without adding much NVH.

I really don't like solid motor mounts much at all because they create their own set of headaches. Most of the guys I deal with aren't worried with a little extra added NVH so most of them run polyurethane motor mounts and transmission mount. If you are worried about adding too much NVH to the car you can definitely run the polyurethane motor mounts with a rubber transmission mount it will minimize that.

I had to actually take out my ES poly trans mount due to fear that it would actually cause me nerve damage over time, it was shaking so badly! ![Icon Eek](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies2/icon_eek.gif)
This was with worn. rubber. OEM engine mounts though, so it might be better with poly engine mounts??
