Mark I fail to see where that 40 pounds will make much difference in the firewall area since the mount you have is six point (2 extra thru underside of boat) unless very high G maneuvers are a common occurrence. What if anything have the "Sube" guys been doing to their firewalls to accommodate all that extra weight they are carrying around? Since most builders have placed foam insulation on the inside between stringers for sound deadening it would be a simple matter to place a layer of glass over that to make the whole front end one composite sandwich. A layer of Kevlar would be even better for it's increased tensile strength as well as exceptional vibration deadening qualities. My opinion only. Doug
