Patricia I think the best methid of building an engine mount would be to have a jig like William Wynns but for those of us who will build only one engine mount read on. I dont know how you are building your engine mount but what I did was to make a false firewall so as not to damage the real firewall while welding the engine mount. I then marked the false firewall where the tray should be vertically and horizontzlly. Then determine the distance from the firewall that the tray should be and clamp the tray firmly in place and then cut each tube to fit individually. Be sure and check alignment often to make sure that the tray is still level and square to the firewall. check http://jackandsandycooper.com/motormount.html You will see how we did it. This is my friend Giff (Gifford Gillingham) who has built several airplanes and this is his suggested way of building.
