I was able to find a NIB ST Bluehead, one slightly used Bluehead and a NIB G60. I intend to use the Bluehead in my Southern R/C Tigertail. I'm rounding up the hardware before construction begins and have the Southern R/C-Dave Brown retracts ready. However, I'm looking for a solid metal motor mount and it appears nobody makes them anymore. I can find composite mounts which I really would rather not use and I can find the soft mounts which I've never used and Clarence Lee shuns.

Question- Does anyone know of a solid metal motor mount available? ( The OS .61 mount comes predrilled and the holes don't match). and, 2. Will I see any performance issues with a soft mount?

Your input would be greatly appreciated.
