The turnbuckle mount is actually working surprisingly well. It's beefy and solid feeling. I am not sure about the whole "flex" thing.
Yes the original engine mount would have had more flex to it.
I was still planning on eventually replacing it with something else. Maybe I'll just work on it sooner rather than later.
I like the concept of a diesel heater (running biodiesel). It wouldn't drain the batteries, and would have a high heat output. Using it to heat the batteries is also a good idea, although you would have to get clever in how you run the air tubes, and it would have to use a heat exchanger to keep combustion by-products outside the car and keep burning fuel away from potential hydrogen gas from batteries.
