Turbo, Right Side Motor Mount — Best to go with OE? 200 1985

Replacing lots of neglected parts on Son 2's recent purchase.

I have a stock right mount (274111) on hand, but feel there must be a benefit to the special Turbo mount (1272676), and intend to get one.

Hope this doesn't sound snobbish, but I can't see using FCP's $8.00 MTC mount, given that I want it to last as long as possible. False economy to save a few bucks spread over the OE's expected life, right?

Guess I've answered my own question, but would appreciate comments from those with more Turbo experience.
