I am looking to buy the flat metal rear engine support bar much like the 911 rear support as in the pic in the link, is 3 pcs 2 bolt to 3rd member and the flat bar bolts to them as you see in pic with 4 bolts around the center cut out.
Most 912's have 2 formed brackets with either 4 or 6 (late 69 had 6) rubber blocks bolted between the formed cross support.

Any help is appreciated.

Regards

Jerry...I too looked for one for my 68 912 for quite some time and aside from making one, I just decided to make solid mounts where the rubber block mounts go on the formed channel engine mounting bar. Mine has the 4 rubber mounts and were replaced with solid aluminum...tks, Craig

Thanks Craig, I want to do a couple things in this process, get rid of the clutter and weight of the big double formed 912 mount and go to the cleaner & lighter 911 style as well as change to the Wevo 911 engine mounts, which will be coupled with a Wevo 901 trans beam.
If you notice in the picture the early mount is under the engine mount area where the later one is on top, much higher and my feelings kind of klunky and in the way.

Thanks for the note, Found one, still looking for another (two 912's)

Totally agree and understand Jerry...If you happen to find a third, I would certainly be interested as well...Thought about have some laser cut and welded up....tks, Craig

I have thought about that, I need to measure the cross bar wirh the 911 to see how close it may be, but the hardest part is the brackets to the 3rd member, very different from the later version, will be measuring the one I got in the post today.
They dont have the formed angle on the top & bottom like the 911 and have a 616 p/n on the cross bar so I assume not the same.

I do laser cutting and fab for work, there is a chance of copying it, the 2 Z brackets have a few strongbacks formed into them to aid stiffness byr still do able. I will let you know If I am offered a 3rd.

Regards
