Paul,
I left tubing diameter for my mount(3/4 inch)out of
last message.

Kelly, I can't really be sure with out a top view but I think you need
a diagonal and a lateral tube tying both triangles together above the
engine. They don't have to be 3/4 dia.. Half inch or 5/8 .049 wall would
work fine for this purpose as they would be fairly short and buckling
should not be a factor. The lateral tube could also be a 3/4 dia.
bent tube if a straight tube is not possible. Have you made a model and
applied a torque or lateral force to those two upper rubber mounts?
Looks like you have plenty of room under the engine for a large radiator.

Dear Kelly/Paul,
This is a question unrelated to the mount but my question is on your intake
manifold. There is not the suggested 18" of runner length between the
throttle body and the intake ports tuned for approx. 6000 rpm. What am I
missing here? If this is the case I'll go the way you did on the intake
manifold.

To Ken Gillanders,
Addressing your question about my intake system
(Atkins manifold-TWM throttle body). I had planned to
add tuning tubes to throttle body and tune through the
whole intake system(AKA Powersport).It may not be most
efficient but will have to do for my installation.
