Innovative Mounts engine/transmission mounts

I stumbled upon a company called innovative mounts that makes engine and tranny mounts for the GE and the GD complete with poly bushings and a lifetime warranty (yeah, you apparently send them a pic of cracked bushings and they send you new ones for free). They're offered in an array of different densities to accomodate built engines, and colors to accommodate enthusiasts passion for bushing inspection .(standard trans only) Personally I'm psyched to see a company putting some poly on the market for my little blue wagon, and with a badass warranty even the preventative maintenance minded should be interested. I just thought I'd share. Here's a link!!

Sadly there are reports on here from numerous owners that have said the mounts do not fit without major modifications. Reports are that they are not made correctly and the company is unwilling to make the proper changes to make them fit.

Would love to hear from someone if this has changed. Quality aftermarket motor mounts would be a nice option since the OEM's are not cheap.

And this is the GE section of the forum, so good to hear!

The unhappy users were GD owners, so maybe Innovative got the GE mounts right. Thanks for the heads up!

I forgot to check back in!

Only saw the first response which bummed me out. Being monetarily disabled, this was put off for quite some time but never once left my mind. I wish I checked back in sooner to see the last two remarks. A hundred nopes and one yes is worth a shot since a car cant get you added to a special registry. Im way late but I want to say thank you. I'm still not able to make my order yet, but was actually able to save 250 bucks without something terrible happening. I can almost smell the glue from the prop. 65 sticker.
Not sure quite when, but I'll do some kinda write up when I get em.

and thanks for mentioning the black poly being alright. The specs say somethin like 250 to 400hp and I was wondering how theyd fair with a stock block.

one final tip of the hat to everyone on this forum who looks beyond types of wiper blades.
