Sim Jet's mount
I have two pic's that were taking off of SKS videos. I think it is one of Sim Jet's turbine mount, If you can help please do.

RE: Sim Jet's mount
G-Rookie,
While the engine shown is a SIMJET, the mounting system is not. I appears to be of custom manufacture and utilized a pair of GATES screw type clamps.
This type of mount is easily duplicated from an aluminum C channel and a pair of the GATES hose clamps as shown. The C channel is screwed down to the airframe mounting surface the engine inserted and the clamps tighetened.
I'm sure there are pre-fabricated mounts available as well.
