Welcome to the MCF.

I'm going to talk generalities here. Usually when a car continues to break motor mounts there are only a few reasons for it. The first is that the motor is too big for the car. This is unlikely in this case. The second would be an unknown broken motor mount. Check the other mounts to be certain there isn't more than one broken mount. Third is that the car has been wrecked and rebuilt. However something is still bent so when it torques it puts pressure in the wrong places. I hope you find the solution. Also make sure you are putting in quality parts not the imported China crap.
