I'd recommend the following:
1. Moroso solid steel mount (if vibration is not a concern)
2. Energy Suspension Poly Eurethane mount if vibration is a concern
3. factory GM (Camaro) mount and drill a 1/2" hole in the center and install an bolt with a washer under the head and a washer and nut on the other side to prevent separation (achieves the same goal as the energy suspension mount) this is an old school hot rod trick.

4. Stock GM (camaro) mount and chain or strap the drivers side of the motor down with Home Depot parts. achieves the same goal as the energy suspension setup. also an old school hot rod modification.
