Where did you post it?

I don't know that the "frame" rail reinforcements are necessary, but they serve two purposes: distributing the dynamic load (which is now going into the floor) from the gearbox in absence of the PPF and facilitating the addition of fasteners. I could have used rivnuts in the rails, but it would sure suck to have those mount locations tear out. They also don't weigh much and so it seemed like a bit of a no-brainer.

Looks like the Keisler mount straddles the frame rail and goes into the floor directly?

LIkely that the actual mount can be skipped and you will instead need to adapt something else more specific to the engine/trans combo being used.

That didn't exist when I built my car, but it's interesting nonetheless.

You're also putting down way more power/torque than the LFA and through a more severe transmission.

It's not intended to state anything. Several years ago it wasn't easy to put either a Nissan CD009 or BMW DCT transmission in an RX8 either.

And no, not necessarily. A modified LFX is capable of 450+hp, 400+ lb-ft.

Oh yeah, not LFA :D:. Have they done much forced induction? Most of their documentation is focused on the NA version.

the chassis mounts are the most critical pieces to have or make, putting whatever is required between them is not a big deal when operating at this level of chassis/drivetrain mods

It's not working in a vacuum either, the engine mounts will also contribute to carrying the torque and moment loads.

I just knocked my outers off. The first one took me 45 minutes of tapping, hitting, pulling, and smashing. I ended up putting an aluminum pickle fork to it and hitting it over and over and over with the mini sledge and it finally came off. The second one popped off on the second hit. I need a bigger vice like yours.

be sure to put anti-seize on them and it will be much easier in the future.

I did my first trackcross this past weekend. Super fun.

Car continues to be a blast to drive, perfectly reliable and quick.

That looks like a ton of fun, certainly looks like a test of suspension stability with all of the on/off track maneuvers. Well done!

I just noticed that you have the coolant reservoir in the stock location up front, but the height is way below your front to back crossover pipe. Do you just unbolt and raise up the reservoir to fill the system, and then once bled, seal it up and lower it back down?
