Really nice work on that mount. The section that you "honey combed", is that a common thing to do? I've never heard of it before, does it serve any other purpose aside from structural integrity?

Not sure if it's common, but I figured I might as well since I could. The purpose is to keep from pressure points from occurring, which will cause sag in the metal, and eventually fail. These create a rigid break in the gap between the top and bottom... in addition the boxed in design makes it even more rigid.
Just trying to keep everything reinforced heavily in the event I want to add some more power to the f20 in the future

Looking good, although you could've also gotten some bigger poly mounts to make up for the gap. But I guess a welder is there for that to fix that too.

I was going to wait to finish this next weekend, but I need to move the engine out of the garage so here ya go.
