This is correct. Years ago, the fad was to install solid steel engine
mounts. I welded up a solid steel mount myself when I was out of the mounts
and a
race was the next day. This was terrible. Piles of vibrations coming through
the car, and I ended up with some small cracks in the frame. The new mounts
came through the mail, and that steel mount came out and went into the trash
can.
