It seems almost every engine I've taken out of a 914 had engine brackets that are distorted and have wallowed holes. So I had my local hydro-cut shop make some new brackets that spread the load and will hopefully stop all the distortion. These are made from 1/4" aluminum.
  I'm going put the first set on my 24 hours of LeMons car. Thanks Joe |

I do not think the aluminum is up to the job.
