Gidday,
I have a Rotax engine mount that has needed a welding repair, and now I 
have mated it to my landing gear mount in an attempt to mount a Graham 
Singleton phenolic firewall. The mount has the 4 legs sticking forward, and 
the top 2 are the ones with the bracing. The bottom ones have none. This is 
contrary to how I would have imagined it to be. The installation picture 
Graham provided me has reinforcing bracing on the one of the bottom legs, 
the port one as I recall, braced back toward the weld attach point of the 
Starboard leg. So, what sort of engine mount have I actually got, and what 
sort is the one in Grahams picture???? Standing by.....
