Ok, tomorrow i will be welding the mount in place, and just doing a trial fit of the engine so here it is so far.
Problems encountered that need clearing up are:
My F28 is super super close to chassis, so I will just take a little bit off of the lip here:

Also, the mount sits very high up:

So im considering drilling a new hole for the rubber underneath the bottom hole, and the existing bottom hole will become the new top hole, so it will sit more like this:
This way i will be able to get a better weld, and should make it stronger:

The rubber is extremely tight, so im going to grind the metal face off of the mount to cure this.

PS: Is this right the way Im lowering the tie bars:

Front block dimensions are 90mmx30mmx35mm (L x W x H)
Rear blocks dimensions are 70mmx30mmx35mm
And obviously welded a plate to the underside of the track control arms to beef them up a bit:
