Hi Dan,
Would appreciate seeing some pics if it's not too much trouble. Others might too. I'm at a point where I could still switch to the new mount, but need to make the decision pretty soon.

Hey All-
I picked up the new mount late last week. We were able to get the old mount off and the engine pulled on the first day. The new mount and engine are back on now.
The new mount wasn't exactly plug and play (fair amount of work really), but it's on and I am sure I'll be really happy I went with it in the long run. A couple poor cell phone pics
