I used this Patrick mount on my car for one summer......and broke it. It has been repaired and reinforced as shown. I finished the autocross season with this bar the year I went to the six. I felt it had too much flex and went to a Johnson firewall mount.

He probably told him what he told a friend of mine......"It must have been abused"

I actually bought this mount a long time ago. I had already read about failures before I put it in. I figured with only a 2.0L motor and 205 R comps I'd be OK. I figured if it broke I'd just get another mount........which is exactly what I did. I never bothered to call Patrick. I figured it would just be a waste of time.........sort of like trying to sell this mount.

It is installed in my PCA GT5 race car with a 2.2 turned into a 2.5 two years ago. There is no signs of failure on the mount. Where did yours fail? It looks like it is at the ends. I am interested in going to a bulk head mount only because it would be easier to take my motor in and out on my four post lift with a bulk head mount. Do you know if there is any significant difference between the RJ and the Maddog unit? Rich |

This add was from a couple of years ago but the patrick bulkhead mount has some advantages for a race car in that it allows the motor to tip. I've had my motor tipped at the track a half dozen times now to do repairs at events. |
