Paul: I have my mounts designed and just finished making some practice mounts. They looked pretty good. I'll now try to test them to failure.
I was wondering about the temperature spread for the 22000 series mounts. Barry specification are -40 to 93 degree C. That work out to about 200 F. Isn't that a little low for airplane engine cowling temp? Has anyone had trouble with these mounts under cowling or is this nothing to worry about?
Again Thanks for the help,

I would not let them "see" the white hot exhaust pipes due to radiation heat transfer
but Neopren is widely used in A/C motor mounts and that is what they are made of.
Would not hurt to put cool air blast tubes on them.
