John V.-
I thought you were pointing me to the (obvious) answer to my question, and although your clarification appears to have been unintentional, it was still appreciated.
Earl- thanks for the BTDT input.

I just installed the Anchor $44.95/pair mounts from Autozone in my S3, in stock.
Having held the old Porsche in one hand and the Ford in the other I'm satisfied that the unit that holds a 4.9L iron block in a 1 ton Ford truck is tougher. If the ride is smoother than I've ever known then the choice is good and I'll do it again anytime I have the crossmember off.
Please be shure to get the Anchor mounts (with made in USA stamped into them.) I first went to Pep Boys and they had hydraulic mounts made in China that obviously were not acceptable.

Steve, sorry for the late reply, I haven't checked the list for a few days. The p/n for the Anchor "solid" mount is 2698"S". They just add the "S" to the base p/n. The dimensions are the same as the 2698, but they cost less, as they are not hydraulic. I am honestly pleased with the performance of them so far. Either Anchor mount is available from Rock Auto for less anywhere else I checked. HTH,

Porken, I checked with Energy Suspension on the eurothane mounts, but they don't make them for the Ford trucks/SUV's. They do have them for the Mustangs, but they are a completely different design.

I've not ordered from Rock Auto before, but decided after reading thru this thread to order their Anchor 2698 motor mounts...just $41.07 for the pair (includes shipping to VA). Mike

I installed RA Anchor mounts about 4 years ago and ll is still good. I hear there are different versions of the same mount... luck of the draw I guess.
Here is a good thread on the subject

The quality of the Anchor/Corteco MM's has fallen off a cliff.
Check this out to ensure yours are OK before you use them.

Does it have the "Do It Yourself" manual transmission, or the superior "Fully Equipped by Porsche" Automatic Transmission?

I have the new volvo mounts from Roger and I like them. 2000 miles on them in two weeks so far.
