Hansen Roto-Mount

It actually takes up the same space as the Hyde mount. You can make it for a few bucks. It is every bit as effective as any mount. I have always set it up stiffer than the Hyde mount to save header breakage. Here is a picture of a special version which may help you understand it better.
The rails dovetail into the rear 3/8 plate---the 10/32 x2.5" bolt attaches to the firewall into a 1/2' thick block behind the firewall--- the Elastic is simply a very thick walled piece of surgical rubber slid over a 10x32 x2.5 bolt -buried in the back plate--- ANY mount such as a Dave Brown mount can be modified to work as well . There is NO reason to pay a lot for a mount --unless you simply "got to have one". Oh the overall length required for the mount and an air box engine is 6.5" (spinner to firewall).
