Why do they make their engine mounts flat like that? Rubber works much better in shear than tension/compression.

But a nice build. If you're LHD then a cummins will fit well and an Isuzu won't. If your RHD then an Isuzu's the go.

What a big lump of engine that is, would weigh a bloody ton ! Rack is not bad - i have seen a lot worse.

Why not tell late model manufacturers that, the went from angled mounts, to flat, falcons, commodores, etc

They're not using big inline 4's though.
