I like the idea of keeping the motor mount on the back (front?) of the
engine similar to the Lyc mounts, freeing up the sides of the engine for
easy intake/exhaust routing. Is there enough 'meat' in the mounting
bolts to be comfortable with them carrying the 6g loads of the motor?

I would not recommend this mount being used as a part of a cantilevered mount.
Only used as a third mount if the main mounts were located forward near the 
engine/psru/prop CG.
