Asyou my allready know you will have to add some weight to the nose, So if you decide to go with the iso mount as shown insted of using to wood plate, make the plate out of a piece of steel this may eliminate the requirement for added wieght in the nose. I had to add 16 oz.

Some of the builders have used 1/4 to 3/8 and yaa with out a drill press it is a PITA to get the hole just right, and if I ever ding my firewall or front end the re install will be using the steel plate .

Just a thought

PS if you start out a bit nose heavy just drill holes to reduce the weight
