Blackbird Bottom Mount
While lying under the car scratching my head - I noticed the mount was only held on one side.
Does it need another tube & boss on the right side ? I think it does, but then again I know nothing....
Answers from the floor will be appreciated - Thanks

Bearing in mind that the blackbird engine cases are prone to twisting, I would either fit both lowers or not use the bottom mounts at all. Many years
ago when racing these motors in sidecar outfits we found that the flex in the outfits chassis could twist the bottom half of the cases in relation to
the top case, this could cause the crank to nip up. The quick fix was to sling the motors on their top mounts only. I am not suggesting that the cars
chassis move as much as the sidecars but I would definitely do one or another fully.
Best regards
Andy
