Wally, any other pics of the new transmission mount? It's my next project on my build, after I get caught up around the house.

Walter, what size are your header tubes.

Francelle: they are 39mm inner diameter and 42mm outer diameter (1,5mm wall stainless 304).
Still on the large side for the engine size and anticipated power levels, but its what I could get the parts for most easily and the same size as the former 2,2 engine had.

I'll try and look up some other pics of the tranny mount and combined scatter shield. Its basically the steel upgrade engine lower mount from Gerd Weiser (GWD.de ,others sell it too), where I have flexed off the flat part and substituted it with 10cm wide and 6mm thick plate to serve as a scatter shield. Its protocol here to enter dragraces if you drive under 11.99 iirc...
