I wouldnt say the A14 was torquey. But the rough idle of the cam felt rougher with the broken mount. (yes only passenger side mounts for me too,lifting side) And the only reason it really broke all these mounts was due to them been abit stuffed already and poorly aligned spacers to fit the a14.

You must have a very torquey motor for it to do that at idle. But then when you think about it you have broken sets of mounts. I have only ever broken left side mounts. I have gotten some good bruises from the gearstick whacking me in the leg when a mount has snapped from a walk off the clutch. Never managed to break a set of mounts though.

I broke 3 sets of engine mounts in an EA stunt falcon (my parents car that I got to use when I first got my P's, Hence stunt falcon). I used to wreck them hitting speed humps at 80k's. Every time they broke there was a vibration and also torque was severley effected.

Ive broken about 3sets of engine mounts. It always felt rougher, yes even at idle. A lumpy cam didnt help either. If you think about it. Even with a broken mount the same forces are still been applied to the body. Its still attached right? Its not hovering or spinning on its own axis.
Mine felt rough with broken mounts as each time it lumped over it would slighty lift the broken mount and come back down with more force than before. Rather than the energy been spread out on the lift and drop all energy is been put into the drop of the mount. Geeez what a ramble. Sorry guys. Have you found the source yet? If your having firing problems it would be best to get that sorted first. It may well be the whole problem.

My car vibrated like hell when i got it.
Turns out the gearbox was touching the tunnel. Might be that?

Its ok to disagree, but it is also worthwhile carefully reading what I wrote and not just what you quoted. Its also worthwhile asking yourself exactly how many cars you have seen and felt broken engine mounts on.
