rebuilding engine. new motor mounts?

recently bought a camaro with a compression ring out in to so im doing a complete rebuild on the motor. should i go ahead at this point and replace the motor mounts as well even if they dont appear to necessarily need it?
also what motor mounts should i go with (car is a 91 L98)

will be putting headers onto the car eventually after a bit of break in time on the motor if that makes any difference

BEats the hell out of NOT replacing them, and them suddenly needing it about the day after you finish up blocking the path to them with a motor.

Stock ones are probably fine, especially if you're leaving TPI on it. That will protect them from ever seeing any significant stress.
