Whatever you decide on, be sure you are getting stainless steel and not chrome-plated steel. .
Second, the split ball has to have the tightening bolt torqued way down to keep whip vertical. If the threads on the base side are wimpy, they will just strip out when you tighten. At that point you're screwed.
Now a funny story. Many moons ago I had a nameless law enforcement agency utilizing low band. An officer took his patrol car to the car wash.

And heres the G.E. mount. Cant tell if its one of the good old ones
Did you put bigger bolts on the mount? or do they come that way? So if i can get one, i better jump on it?
Here is the motorola mount im looking at getting. Would it be the same as the one in your picture?
Does anyone know if the TLN6589C Motorola ball mounts are any good? Or if the Andrew ASP-3 is a good one? I cant find any pictures of it on the internet. Anyone used either of these before?
