One piece motor plate

[jakesz28]

I have had this one drawn up and had it quoted a couple times with the laser shop that I use but have not receaved any yet. I will have the first ones hopefully by the end of next week.


I should be able to let the first ones go for $175 shipped.



The first one will be going in my car and it will have a notch for a mini alternator and the mounting pieces that go with it. Actually the mini alternator was on my car the last two trips to the track and I had no problems keeping the belt on at the 8200rpm rev limiter.:jest:

Picures will be coming soon.

[jakesz28]

Well I finally ran some. The next ones will all be laser cut. But I have some ready to go.

They come with the steel brackets that get welded to the frame rails. $175 shipped. Makes it easy to build a custom turbo system plenty of room for what ever headers you want to run. Plus they help to stiffen your chassis and work good when mounting vacuum pumps etc.

I am looking. How thick is it? Going to convert my car back to a street car:secret: You know mellower to drive and 400hp more :metal: Gotta have my PS back LOL!

The plate is 1/4 inch. The steel tabs that weld to the frame are also 1/4". That picture was with the cell phone I can take another one if you want. The motor mounts in the stock position(offset to the pass side). If your going to try the hedman hustler 1 7/8 headers you can atually put them in from the top. Or I was able to on my car just had to remove the tall valve covers for a little clearance.

jake i can get a friend of mine to run those on the waterjet, he does stuff CHEAP! if you want to get me a drawing i can get a quote to see if we can get these a little more profitable for ya, not trying to steal this from ya but think i can give you a little helping hand on price :)

[devonsZ28]

what does this do?

[MeanGreen94Z]

eliminates broken motormounts :)

[devonsZ28]

ohh ok, just curious thanks

[jakesz28]

what does this do?


It removes stress off of the side of the block to help prevent cylinder distortion. It also gives you more room to get headers in and out and run larger tubes, place to mount vacuum pump, etc.

I usually run the first ones on a cnc mill to check fitment before there done on a lazer cutter. The machine time is free and after they check out it is cheaper to order in a larger quanity then one or two prototypes.

I may send you a pm about it later. Where are you located?

[MeanGreen94Z]

im located in Lynchburg VA and would be glad to assist you with shipping to the buyers, i have a UPS account and local pickup is free when i have more than 3 shipments. im glad to help anyone out :)

I might be able to work with you a little bit.

[MeanGreen94Z]

i think 100 for this and a alt bracket would be GREAT! lol

[jakesz28]

I can't go into a negative numbers here or it's not worth making them.

[MeanGreen94Z]

im just messing with ya ma, this is killer for a motorplate! especially one that basically fits from the box

[jakesz28]

bump.........

[devonsZ28]

so with this you dont need the motor mounts anymore?
also i want to use the speed inc alt relocation kit that keeps the PS, do you know if this would interfear with that?
thanks

[jakesz28]

With this there is no need for motor mounts.


I would say it most likely will not work with that kit. A little hard to tell without seeing it in person.
