Engine mountings

hi
I need some new mounts for the kitcar as the bonded ones ive been using are falling apart as one has decided to part company with the steel mount. I cant seem to find any more of them old bonded ones. I need to know is it worth buying these of burton power.

To me, they dont look that strong, but i may be wrong.

Or could i just get the rubber mounts with the two threads sticking out and just drilling a hole it the old steel mount. then just buy some of them rubber mounts. but the problem with that is burtons seem to have a delay with them, and on ebay there £30 which i supose isnt bad, but its £30. does anyone have anything going cheap, or know where i might purchase some from.
Thanks

EDIT

Opps. these are for a x-flow.

Old Volvo 122 mounts are similar, I have used them on the Locost and my old race car.
