I know I have to fix this asap, but I am scheduled for a 1000 mile drive in the morning, and Just discovered the mounts are both broke. It has been clunking for some time but I thought it was front end...

What do you guys think, am I begging for serious trouble or can one drive a distance with the motor loose in there?

eeehgads......

You could rub through an oil line and then you'd be in real trouble.

Probably not a good idea.

Better take a different car or delay the trip til you can get it fixed.
