I have a Lost Hills mount but it doesn't fit well and I've been slowly working on it with a torch. I think I might have to grind out the two front tubes and tweek them forward again just a little more. I'm making a pair of stub rear intakes to increase power but will also need to modify the mount a little more to clear the carbs. I'm using a pair of R912 carbs to get rid of the belcrank and simplify the throttle hook up. Thinking about a pressure airbox. The top of the round cowl does limit visibility on the ground esp. looking right. With my mount the engine sits high and the gearbox has to be turned down so that the hub is in the center of the cowl opening. One advantage is there is a large space available at the bottom for the oil cooler and exhaust.
