Drill and tap the center iron so you can use the FC mounts.

Rew

If you want to keep rew electronic go with motive fab mounts or build the rear of the crossmember to accept FD mounts. If you want to keep FC electronics then drill and tap the center iron and run the FC oil pan, waterpump assembly, and front cover. I just finished one with the motive fab mounts and it fit like a glove. I really dont care for the design of the mount and don't know how well they will hold. I am definately running rubber mounts to help soak up torque. We will see when I get her tuned. I have a thread in the second gen forum with the motor test fitted in.

+1, this will help you completely avoid the horrid REW oil pan leaks.
