Belt Pulleys & Upper Motor Mount

I am going to purchase the idler and tensioner pulleys today. I have noticed several major price variations with mfgr through the sponsors. Is it best to go with the SAAB brand pulleys or do the off brands perform as well?
Last weekend I replaced the engine upper motor mount with a POLY unit from SAABSTORY. The dogbone one was broken too but it was still intact. Anyway, sawing through the engine mount with 1/2 a hacksaw blade was a chore but easy. The entire effort was only a couple of hours. As for the dog bone mount, I filled the holes with 2 part epoxy and then filled the entire top and bottom of the mount with the remaining 2 part epoxy. After 250 miles of driving, all is well. There is noticible vibration through the steering wheel at idle but acceptable, well until I get another poly mount for the dog bone, probably from Europarts as they claim their poly mount is softer (anyone confirm). The shifter is much more percise but it still is lose side to side, is this common? Will a new bushing on the shifter rod eliminate the slop?
I must say, this site is GREAT! THANK YOU ALL!
