I personally have made my own hockey puck motor mounts February this year.
I decided to try it because no one else nearby has them, and i was seriously on a budget.

The cost was around $28 for everything.
-4 Hockey Pucks (NHL Legit ones!)
-2 Big Diameter Washers
-1 Grade 8 Bolt
-1 Grade 8 Washer

I ended up using 2 on each side. This ultimately lowers your motor about an inch at my guess. The oil pan is sitting much lower than the sway bar now, which i'm getting a skid plate from PBM for. I would use 2 and a half pucks to make it more accurate.

Review? I love them, They are very solid, and i'm loving my throttle response(better than half broken oem ones). As far as vibrations go, i only notice mild shaking at warmed up Idle, like 7-9 hundred rpm. While i'm driving, i really cannot tell that i'm using solid mounts.

I personally would recommend for anyone thats looking for a cheap and easy way to get solid reliable mounts. I've had these for a 2-3 months already, and they've seen 3 track events. I'm very happy with them, no sign of wear so far.

If you don't like them in the long run, you've only spent $30 bucks, so if you ask me. "Why not?" is my answer to you. I'm sure you'll like them. Do it!
