20B Motor Mounts By Defined Autoworks

... are planned to debut this summer!

I was on their vendor forums on "rx7club" asking if they were interested in offering a bolt-on solution to a 20b swap like they do for rx7's and was pleased to find out...

a friend of theirs has given them possession of their rx8 and they are currently working on 20b Rx8 motor mounts as a side project. From my discussions with them, it sounds like they are taking the steering system, suspension geometry, and engine placement into deep consideration. This should really be something.

I was told it is from a wrecked RX7, that means it's from one place in Florida that did successful conversions....
