Moving on to the rear mounts

The rubber mount on the left is what I wanted to use, they look so handy and simple... but I can't think of an easy way to fab up the mounts in this case. It would be real easy if the frame was a lot wider than the engine where the mounts go but that's not the case here.

The cast housing and the rubber bushing on the right is what I'll probably use. Need to make some simple Frankenstein like pins to go on the flywheel housing and drill two 1/2" holes in the frame rails.
This will be much like the mounts on my truck, perhaps a little simpler; both use the very same rubber bushings.

Anyone have better mount ideas? Also has to be something I can find and make this week.
