Timing Belt for 924S

I spent a hour or so with the new 87/924 today, it is in remarkably good shape. The 82 924 that we had needed major work to brake and fuel lines under the car due to rust. This car has no rust at all to the lines, the front end is tight, brakes are good, new radiator, no lubricant leaks except at the valve cover, engine runs strong. little growling at the rear at highway speed that I gotta look into. I'm feeling pretty good about this purchase.
Two questions: What is the tensioning tool that is needed to replace the timing/balance belts? How expensive and where is it available? And is it likely that the motor mounts are bad at 90,000 miles? The engine shakes a little at idle and I recall having to replace the mounts on the 82 and it made a major difference.
This baby will be on the street in a few weeks, it's not gonna take much to make it roadworthy.

Thx,
Jon
