Huck, here are some pictures of the SVX engine mount plate modified for the Grp N motor mounts. (The pics are in my locker too.) In the first picture, that's a 1/4" thick steel plate welded onto the SVX mounting plate. The plate was needed to allow the Grp N mount to fit correctly on the plate. The mounting plate also had to be ground to allow the Grp N mount to fit. I think the holes in the plate had to be repositioned too. If you're going to make up some mounting plates, I think you are going to need some Grp N mounts to figure out how to properly modify the SVX mounting plate.
