Just to follow up on the trans mounts, I talked to the good folks at McKenzies (local offroad racing parts house) and they recommended I go with stock mounts putting straps on both the rear and front of the trans. This actually will work out better for me because the solid mount doesn't fit the downtube that mounts to the rear trans mount very well. I'll have to take some pix tomorrow so you can see what I'm talking about.
