Steve,
Get ahold of Richard Peck. I'm sure he could help. Not sure how he's doing. But you could try.
Seems the xs-83 had the larger rear axle mounts that the engine bolted to.and the xs-85 had the smaller one's. I have an early xs-85 frame that Richard confirmed for me it has the smaller rear axle mounts as shown in the pictures posted.

..Thanks again Romero ., finally finally seen a picture of the motor mount set up ..
week or so ago I mocked up a cardboard motor mount ..you wouldn't believe how similar it is to orig,. except now its gonna be way easier ..I was thinking about using 3/8ths aluminum plate machined counter sunk bolted together in 3 sections well I seen in picture its 10 gauge carbon plate bent in a U on a press brake ..
wish I new how get pic from phone on here you would laugh if you seen how close I was on a guess and my own visions .. lol..
thanks again now I get new floor pan ., make a seat .,paint it a Lil .. ill be ready for ya at Fremont ...
