I was thinking of making my own mold and pouring some polyurethane in, but never got around to it. My neighbor did his own motor mounts that way.

I remember that it was about $89, but it was well worth it after putting on a different one and having the threaded insert strip and having to tear it down and do it twice. Make sure the threads are steel and not an insert that's set like a rivet. The steel threaded ones are the good ones.

The "other" one we used had aluminum threaded inserts that were punched into the holes. Many people say they work fine, and they might. We had problems with the bolt holes being off and the bolts went in something other than straight and then stripped the inserts (the inserts began to spin in the mount).
