These mounts attempt to use the stock FC mounts to support the weight of the engine, but keep in mind the REW mounts on the rear iron. So you have a huge lever and a lot of lateral stress on the FC mounts. It's certainly not the best arrangement but currently the oil choice for bolt in.

I'd suggest you just hang the REW in the engine bay and then weld a set of mounts on the FC subframe once you see where they need to be.
