What engine rubbers on M30 E30

Have my new mounts from 300mm.de and want to get hold of the required bits to push my engine back fro0m Alpina position 1 to position 3. Did I read that some people have used Burton mounts from a rs2000 or something like that on their m30 conversion?
Cheers in advance

standered m20 ones are fine. just make sure they are new or in vgc.

I'd never use Burton again, my last pair failed after a days use. The metal wasn't sunk far enough into the rubber. Not to everyone's taste but I use 2 hockey pucks

ok what I have on there already seems ok. Steer clear of the burton ones. Hockey pucks is that just with a bit of studded bar and large washers.
Thanks, still not made any in roads into it due to weather and waiting for sump, oil pickup and dipstick.

2 pucks each side, drill them out for M10 bolts, fit long M10 bolts and a nyloc nut. Again, not to everyone's taste but I don't notice much vibration on my road going M30 track/drifter.

Probably a good idea but they are fine as they are.
