Sometime in the future I will have to purchase/make engine mounts for my /6 conversion. From what I understand there are two types, firewall mount and mounts that utilize the stock 4 cylinder mounting brackets. I was at my mechanics shop today and he had a /6 conversion up on the lift and I looked at the "stick" mount he had made for this conversion. It was basically a piece of square stock aprox. 1 1/4 in diameter with reinforcements in various places and it seemed very simple and stable. So for you guys running conversions what's the scoop on the two types? What are the pros / cons of both? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
