Hi Paul,
I noticed there is no reference to Tracy's motor mount on your web site?
Or I missed it some how? I think his mount is very simple and already
proven.

Well it is but the Questair type, I think, is also proven and
lighter and simpler. It also gives more room around the engine
for turbo's and mufflers. The Questair type reduces the
compression in the rubber bushings under torque loads
which enhances the vibration isolation characteristics.
These drawings are merely design ideas and they are what I think
appear to be the lowest weight to do the job. I will also consider
and calculate the loads in anybody else's mount design if they
will send me a scale drawing.
