Would this also work for the 20B? If so I would be interested........John

It sure would. I just calculated the load and stress for 900 pounds each side during
a six G drop in crash landing and it came out to 9,000 psi just using
the lower angle section of the casting. Well within the capabilities of
356-T6 aluminum casting material. So I simplified and did
away with the upper diagonal. This will give more room for the stock
turbo exhaust pipe and an intercooler on the other side. 
A further advantage is it can be cut to any width. How about 
that Mike? :-)

Should be a bit lighter as well.
