140 engine mounts 140-160

Good to know about the Land Rover mounts.

I am not racing the car, so I don't need the mounts to be overly stiff. I think my particular problem is a combination of really soft aftermarket mounts and a rough running engine. The B18 that's in my 142 has a badly worn cam lobe and some questionable timing control, since the centrifugal advance is sloppy- so I think it's shaking around more than any B18/20 should.

That being said, I have a recently freshened up B20/M41 to put in the car, so I'm not super concerned about the tune of the B18. I just want to get some *slightly* stiffer mounts for when I do the swap. Also, my car is quite low, so comfort is probably not my number one priority.

Thanks guys, for all the help!
