just drill and tap the intermidate housing and use the stock mount's.. it's cheaper and you don't risk stressing those crappy $300 mount's

OR

Use a piece of $5 flat bar and weld it across the subframe. Instant FD style mount for next to nothing....and you could use stock FD mounts for isolation, or banzai mounts if you're feeling perky.

Also, as "easy" as it is do drill and tap the intermediate iron, its an awful fucking expensive piece to muck up

That would work on the right side but the left side has no provision for the motor mount. The "meat" of the iron is missing versus what is there on the earlier engines.
