I would imagine you could just buy the correct mount for the engine and car mate,
most cvh mounts are the same from experience,
Any ford dealer or motor factor would be able to get you one,
I used to bust the gearbox mounting's all the time on my old 2i when i had it, Buy yourself some polyurathane ones IMO

i modded a fiesta mk3 diesel mount and found it to be much better its really easy to do just get a 1600 cvh mount if you look its in 2 bits undoo the 2 17mm bolts and it will come apart then on the metal part that bolts 2 the back of the engine open up the 2 slots about 1mm and the deisel mount will slot in then just bolt it back up ,hope this helps and the mount from ford is about Ł20 if you get get stuck ill put a pic of mine up.

the problem is is that it is a Si shell and is supposed to have a 16v engine in so the engine mount needs to be spaced out and i wasnt sure wether the 1400 si used the same shell as the 1600 Si
