you can always fill them with 94a liquid poly, pretty damn close to solid and only costs about $30.

camp1320 has mount kits with 85a urethane which is very stiff and will absorb some vibration... for the 95 prelude

if you want a SOLID mount, weld a big washer on each side of the mount. i probably wouldn't do it if you have any dental fillings though

FYI, Honda mounts are made from CAST IRON which isn't recommended for any kind of welding. Eventually, the mount are going to crack.

Honda factory. If it was CAST STEEL, yes, it would be weldable.

a way i have found to make really solid motor mounts is to get a piece steel they sell at lowes. they sell it in 4 foot sections. its 4 inches wide and 1/8 inch thick. if you know how to use a grinder and a MIG welder then you pretty much have it made. this piece of metal is about 17 bucks but forget about ever using any of your mirrors again and remove any change or other items from your cup holders
