you can buy mounts from some company in europe but we found it cheaper to make own

Got any "blueprint" or drawing, something along them lines to how they were made, or was it simply a trial and error spur of the moment thing? lol

trial an error but mainly depends how low you want the engine to sit and also how much chassis you are willing to cut.
we mounted my engine a lot higher than others so i can run 15's and stay low. we used a ford transit and ford sierra cossie mount hahah
