Instead of that step though Id prefer a curve all the way to the start
of the base of the mount. Then you have stress distribution.
Nice setup though.

just sit the engine in the engine bay and make them the height that you want it. you probably dont want them as low as what i made mine. made making the sump a lot of work as the crank its self only had about 15-20mm clearance to the cross member before there was a sump

can sit it a bit higher if you arent going to run a down draft carby and dont mind the higher centre of gravity

 Re: L series crossmember 3
what are engineers like with cutting up crossmembers
Best they dont know or can you pass them...?
Lucky the CA18 sits on a slant and with the FWD exa
sump its a perfect fit. However would be nice to go
that little bit lower for handling as stated.

They need to be x rayed and braced. Depends on each engineer you speak to for structural and load integrity. Mine was inspected for mounts and passed flying colors

 Re: L series crossmember 3
Considering the height and skirt width of the L series
it would be handy but pricey mod to have for extra clearance.
