I want to upgrade my motor and transmission mounts.

The car is used for track and street so I probally don't want solid mounts.

Can anyone recommend a supplier for sport mounts?

Use the stock motor mounts and sport mounts for the tranny, they work great!

All of your favorite mail-order outfits can get 911 "sport" motor mounts. Those swap in for the 914 tranny mounts. Some tweaking to the mounting ears on the trunk floor may be needed.

On the side-shift cars (73+), use the stock mounts. On the tail-shift cars, it may be worth it to use the "sport" mounts on the outboard ends of the motor mount bar.

The solid rear mounts arent that bad. Its gives you a little more tranny noise inside the car, but the improvement in shifting will overshadow anything that you may hear/feel. If you have a good running engine, you wont even feel a difference. They normally run 50$ or so.
