this is a good point and I admit to have not thought it through yet.  I have 
made two engine mount plates so far because the first one had the exhaust 
almost touching the exhaust, maybe 1/8" clearance.  I will have to come up 
with some type of shield however.  I hope, also, to introduce some fresh air 
flow over them also.
