wrap a chain around the frame and put the end link of the chain thru one of the mount bolts with a longer bolt. And no hot roddin' till you get it fixed.

A long long time ago my dads 58 Chevy pickup broke its motor mounts .So he raped the I-6 with chain and bolted it to the frame and drove for a year until it died. So chain works good <IMG SRC="smilies/wink.gif" border="0">

Ya the ol chain trick has been around for as long as there's been motor mounts.
