Here are the two motor mount bits we will offer. Don't know the price yet.
You can cut off what you don't need on the tubing to save a very small
amount of weight. You will need at least four of the fire wall brackets
and at least two of the rubber mount brackets per motor mount.
In my case (Kis Cruiser) and probably the Lancair you would go with six of

the

firewall brackets. This is the kind of piddling stuff that takes
a long time to order the material for and weld up.

This type of firewall bracket saves a bit of weight over the real long bolt
small tube type.

Paul,
I am interested since we are both building a KIS, but the drawing came
through with a bunch of hash wiping out most of it.  From what I can make
out, you are not going with the "through the firewall rubber bushing" mount
that you originally were proposing.  Why is this?

These pieces are for welding the support tubes onto, right? Hard to tell with
the distortion.  Could you retransmit the file?

Thanks,
Bill

I thought I would focus on the problem at hand and leave the R&D for
another time and a younger man. Otherwise it will take me the rest 
of my life :-)

OK let me know if this comes through blurred. I sent it to myself and it 
looked OK. Yes they are welded on to the ends of the tubes. More
correctly the tubes are welded on to these fittings.
