Guys,

Another good source for Al plate is Kearney Metals in Fresno, CA.

What you

see here I paid $40.00 today. I think she screwed up on the weight

because I

was quoted $2/pound. I have not weighed it yet. They have a large

room full

of scrap that you can pick through, all different sizes and

thicknesses. The

gal at the front said that they just want to get rid of it!! This is

6061 T6

1/2" plate 15 1/2"x 29", perfect size for Paul's motor mount plate

turbo/NA.

The other is 3/8" for the intake manifold flange. Talked to Matt

there and

showed him Paul's drawing and he said no problem with milling it out

for the

redrive, will get back to me for a quote on the machining. Maybe a

group buy

could bring the price down. I would still like to get this in a CAD

format

for CNC machining. I know Tracy put the dimensions on here some time

ago.

Any interest guys?

Paul if you could send me that DXF file I will import it into AUTOCAD and
take it down to Kearny's for a quote. I thought there would be more
interest?? Will try to get the Barry mount horizontal tabs done at the same
time. Got ya Marc you are 1 and I am 2, anyone else??? Going....going.......

It is going to take awhile for people to see the advantages
of this motor mount scheme :-).
Here is a zip file for the DXF.
