All,

 I will be mounting my engine somewhat similar to Tracy's approach using a
sub-mount attached to the Vans supplied conical mount. The difference is
that I would like to build the submount using bolted together pieces of
aluminum extrusions. I'm looking for 3 X 1.5 channel and 4.5 X 3.5 angle
both with a thickness of 3/16 and would like to use 7075 T6. Does anyone
know of a source for this material or am I stuck with 6061-T6?

 I have a .dwg prelim drawing in side view of my sub-mount. A friend who is
an mechanical engineer has taken a look and thinks its OK but this is
really out of his field of expertise. Is there someone out there who is
qualified to take a look and provide a sanity check if I email the file?

Send it Mike and I will post it.
