Greg,
I would go with the Barry 22002-14 mounts.  The ones Fred supplied were -11 and they ripped apart after about a year of just supporting the engine.  I have less than an hour of run time!  I replaced the ones in the front with the -14 because they can support a max load of 380 lbs each.  The two in the front carry almost the entire engine load since they are almost in the balance point for the engine and prop assembly.

Thanks Ed, but freight would cost more than I can make the thing for I'd expect.  I'm not exactly local.  Does my drawing look correct compared to the original.  It's cut out for Barry 22002-12 mounts.
 
Regards Greg
 
 
Dear Greg
         If interested I have mount plates all machined up ready to go.
