Good morning - just doing some planning here but it looks (to my undereducated eyes anyway) that the weld-in and bolt-in mounts are similar. Do people use the Patrick Motorsports one simply to avoid welding?

It looks like a bolt-in one would need holes drilled in the firewall to mount it?

Thanks in advance for the schooling.

Good morning - so when Patrick Motorsports says bolt-in what they are really saying is;

offer the mount up
mark the bold holes
drill the bolt holes
mount it
then weld it

Like that?
