I filled mine four days ago and I still dont think they are dry...I can push it around without it sticking on my finger but it doesnt feel very solid in there...is this normal for the window weld?

check out this tutorial. pretty much shows you want to do http://www.raktron.com/misc/mt.htm
i did the same thing but i bought some 80A durometer liquid urethane from mcmaster-carr and filled my mounts with that. it was like 28 bucks shipped for a pound of liquid urethane and if filled a couple mounts. its also available in 60a and 94a durometer if you wanted something softer or stiffer than 80a

would someone be able to explain how to take the motor mount out to do this project? I don't always understand things about cars, so I don't see how you can take out the motor mount without taking out the motor.

I'm not going to believe that an epoxy compound is going to fix a collapsed steel motor mount for more than a couple of months.

I'm sure there was no damaged steel in your mount. FYI the mounts look some-what like peace signs, the object is to fill the gaps and create a psuedo-solid bushing.
How long did it take your Windo-Weld to dry? I filled my torque mounts almost 7 days ago and they are still as soft and guppy as before any compound at all.

The compound, this morning, is still goopy and will stick to my finger if I touch it. I bought 3m Windo-Weld. WTF is my problem, did I buy the wrong white tube of Windo-Weld?

Well it is still soft as shit and it is about time to re-install them. I will go buy another tube (a white tube that says Wind-Weld with black compound) and add more..

Okay, I had a buddy do mine over the weekend...three out of the five...filled em on saturday afteroon, put em back in on sunday afternoon (earlier today). I drove home from Indianapolis to Chicago and it was great. The car vibrates a little bit more, but barely. Just enough to make it feel like the car has some conviction now...I don't know...it's hard to explain. It just kinda feels like a more solid machine now. Shifting is smoother and I'm pretty sure I notice it putting power down to the ground a little bit better (I don't know...this could all be in my head...except for the extra vibration...i'm sure of that).
It really is a good mod.

would it be wise to get new motor mounts along with motor mount inserts at the same time?

But does it really matter though? I mean, you're filling them with a rather firm, rubber like substance as it is...
I'd say it doesn't matter...

or just buy inserts and also use the window weld. the GSR i just swapped into a eg hatch had this set up with busted ass mounts and the engine literally does not move at all. the next best thing would be solid metal mounts

I couldn't hande my motor being any stiffer though...my car shakes right now, but it's just enough. And Matt, remember how you warned me about the windoweld not being totally cured in the inside and possibly squirting out? Yeah, well....it did. It's no big deal though, just thought I'd tell you.
