ours is not to ask why, but to do or die!
Buy the nolathane replacement mount.
End problem.
Or chain it down yes. Just ensure that the chain only has about 1/2 inch movement in it.
Where you bolt it down depends on which block you have

a lot of the big horsepower drag cars actually put a flat plate about 10mm thick across the front of the motor and down to the chassis, the engine can not move at all then, makes the car shake a bit due to the motor having no leeway to move, but they dont break engine mounts anymore either
go to any car show where the V8's still rule, not the 4cyl things, and if you peer under all the engine bays, you'll see one eventually guaranteed, just go for the real tuff cars first
