    Re: having billet swap mounts made.

    I have a set for sale at the moment if anyone is interested please PM me. As far as making copies i would not bother because people are only looking to reduce the cost and the reality of you actually selling them are slim here. This has been going on for some time now and the truth of the matter is even if you could cut costs by $100 or perhaps $200 how many people will jump on it. Plus you need more than the mounts to do the swap.

    The only drawback i see from doing aluminum is most people will want to or should weld in the rear and tranny side mounts. I have seen the rear crack the rear cross-member so i definately would recommend welding them in.

    I have to disagree a bit, i think costs would be cut quite a bit. Free blueprints + free CNC time. Only problem is coming up with a set to copy. Oh and finding serious buyers. Oh and transferring them to three different people....

    Too many problems and too high of a price for most people on this board. Its been talked about before.

    I know how it is because i did a group buy for big brake kit adaptors a while back and i cut the cost down significantly but when the product was produced everyone bailed out. I ended up taking money out of my own pocket but i was going to do the project regaurdless for myself but i tried to help out 3geez and i had a lot of people interested until it came time to pay.

    On another note if people can't afford $500 for mounts then they probably can't afford the rest of the hardware nevermind the actual B-series motor.
