1973-1987 Motor Mounts

I have a 1971 C10 that I will b e putting an Lq4 LS motor in. I have decided to use 1973-1987 c20 frame brackets and motor mounts along with some dirty dingo slider mounts for an LS engine.

Questions. I purchased the frame brackets and motor mounts from a local Pick a Part. I felt they were pretty expensive. The frame bracket which the clamb shell mount bolts to was cheap at $8 each. However the motor mounts which are outside metal with a rubber inside where $15 each.

They rubber inside is shop and would need to be replaced. I see that Energy suspension makes a poly inner replacement for $25 on rock auto.

However I also see Rocket Auto has the entire mount for $6.14 each with metal and new inner rubber DEA #A2292HD.

Are they mounts for $6.14 good and strong as the orignal C20 mounts with a new energy suspension poly mount?

If the pick apart will take back the $30 mounts I bought from them (doubt it), I would just buy the new mounts and save almost $30 after taxes and fees.

Hope this makes sense.
