That's correct, even if he did, he'd rip those welds out pretty quickly.

Are you sure he didnt mean that instead of using a mount kit, he used the factory mounts and had a couple mount locations welded?

This was common place before mount kits became main stream. Also lots of the tracks cars don't run vibration mounts at all. They use solid mounts so that they get no engine flex. This is very bad on the mounting locations, however if its a full drag car, no worries.
