In this paper, we construct from any given good (3,1)-dimensional manifold pair finitely many almost identical imitations of it whose exteriors are mutative hyperbolic 3-manifolds. The equivariant versions with the mutative reduction property on the isometry group are also established. As a corollary, we have finitely many hyperbolic 3-manifolds with the same volume and the same isometry group.
