Ive been lurking a lot recently, trying to read up on the suby conversion since its what im planning on doing to my 73 at home. Ive pretty much got everything figured out, ej20T, Megasquirt2, fidd's EDIS system (hopefully his fuel maps if he lets me have/buy them from him) and a kennedy eng adapter. That leaves mounting the motor. I was hoping someone would be really nice and post some pics of the different mounts youve made. Ive seen fidd's and it looks good, but idk if i could recreate it.
thanks guys,
clay

I'd check with Renegade Hybrids -
http://www.renegadehybrids.com/914/914subiprices.htmlThey probably have one already engineered, ready to ship.
The suby guys will chime in soon...

So my progress thread was already linked here, and it has the page with the dimensions I used (Its not a perfect firt, but with a shim it fits.).
Here's a picture of the finished mount bar. Cost me a total of maybe $50 to make, including having a welding shop weld it together. I powder coated the outside and painted the inside by pouring in rustoelum and sloshing it around. The aluminum inserts were machined by a friend on his milling machine. Otherwise, the pieces were all cut by hacksaw and finsished with a file.

Makes a hell of a sex swing.
