did you get ahold of Austin? BTW, what keeps you from using the stock mounts and you flip a set of adapter mounts around backwards? Us OBS guys have been doing that for a while so that we don't have to change engine mount platforms.

normally the adapter plates point to the front of the engine. Just reverse them so that the pointed ends go toward the rear. You'd have to take the left side and put it on the right side and visa-versa.
