OK, I think I got it. Let me know if you see any problems. I will
replace the upper 1/8 x 1 x 1 aluminum extrusions with square steel

bolt.

Yep. That looks like it. Have your son make a 1/4 scale  balsa model
to verify.

Ops just saw a problem. Can of worms. The model would show this
quick.

Here is a simpler fix. Rubber rod ends. Still the one! :)

Paul,  I am following the evolution of this motor mount.  Should I
hold
off for awhile in building the Turbo LEZ engine mount  until  the
design  is finalized?  This looks pretty good to me so long as
establishing a hard point on the firewall is doable.        Thanks,
Jerry

It is not much different than the Long EZ mount we did for a couple of
others.
Which design are you thinking of replacing with this one.

Paul Lamar

I am referring to Fred Nielson's turbo LEZ.  He has a new Renesis
engine.  You designed the motor mount a couple of months ago.  I have
only one view and it does  not show all the details.  The center motor
mount is not shown and I don't know where it attaches on the engine.
Attached is your drawing.  However,  in the last drawing you posted
today, the strut had replaced the center motor mount.  That is familiar
territory.   If the firewall can  support the center hard point, then I
think I can go ahead.     Jerry

Gee Jerry why didn't you say something? :)
I thought sure I up loaded some of this stuff. do you need anything else?

Here are some more Jerry.
