The price per mount is 20 pounds a piece or 30 euros. I will take orders so I know how many to bring, but I will bring extra too because they are small and light.
Anybody that wants one when I come over, just let me know what engine it is to fit. I am making a list.
Thanks for the great comments, I think they came out pretty good too!

well.. $30 is reasonable, however your currency converter to euro's really went bonkers! I guess when you come over to the Worlds and you can take a few orders, the "shipment" costs by bringing it with you will be more gentle than the price difference you show now.. ;D

Thanks for catching that. I was a little dazed when I wrote that. I changed it above so it reads correctly. I was trying to keep it easy for myself to figure out. I believe right now that the pound is double of the dollar, and the euro is halfway between, at least thats how I figured it out. Let me know if that works out right now.

I think you have less US friends now.... 30 US Dollar = 22.01059 Euro 30 US Dollar = 14.82426 British Pound see www.oanda.com |

No I had it right.
40 US Dollars
30 Euro
20 British Pounds
That is close enough for me. They cost me a lot to make, and 40 dollars I feel is right on. People can make their own, or have one made, and unless they are a machinist, or know one, it will cost more.
Thanks for the input, and the currency calculator helped alot! Thanks!!!

Certainly look time consuming, but look the business either way..

They are all CNC machined..... hit the button and get a beer!
It was the design and programming that took all the time.... making them is not too bad now.
There will be some over there soon. I ran one on my car at the worlds and it was awesome!
Thanks for writing in

Are these engine mounts still available. My wife is running one in a car we bought and I am realy impressed with them. I want to get one for my own car even though I will have to cut out the existing slotted engine plate.
Due to the pulley lining up with the radius arm pivot point the belt tension is thingy on and doesn't change over the full suspension travel unlike the other types. We have run the same belt now for around ten tanks of fuel both racing and practising.
I can understand that the existing mounts lift the rear of the car under accelaration but surely they also change the springing and damping as the belt tention goes or comes on.
Any way back to the original enquiry. If you are still doing them do you have a UK agent or would we contact you.
Ta very glad
