Ross ,you are lucky that it is a GT40 & mounted on a transaxle. If it was in a Falcon/Mustang application with linkage type throttle mechanism the usual scenario is ; mount fail's, the next full throttle application cause's motor to lift off mount pad on oil filter side, throttle now jam's in wide open, frightened driver now a couple of seconds behind impending accident. Sorry mate, its not a 'pass'. When using these mounts in high power applications it pays to drill thru the metal/rubber/metal sandwich (3/8")&install a c/s headed safety bolt.
