Hmm... "To Grow" :L: Yea, I wish these things grew on trees. So all I had to do, was got to the farmer and make him an offer.
I am trying to picture the brace attaching to the rear plate. How do you feel about just doubling(sp) the Gmaxx motor mount? Would it fit?

What if you made a gmaxx mount out of thicker metal? Make it a bout 6-8 mm in thickness.

It's an idea. Unfortunately, I have not ordered my CNC machine yet. ;) That machine would come in handy. Maybe grow my GMaxx lipo lower plate at the same time.:P:

perhaps something along the lines of a pillow block without the need for the bearing?

I think Daf's suggestion is good.A piece of L-angle aluminium with a channel in top for the motor to rest on should take the stress off the motor plate.I think that'll be enough,i don't think it necessarily needs to attach to the motor,just support it,maybe rubber padded would be good too.

Here is how i made a holder, easy to make too

Haven't got my pics by hand at this moment.

Making the motormount 8 mm thick isn't the way to go, it's more heavy and it aint as strong as a motorholder.

Very interesting.... Forgive my naivety, What vehicle is that?

That's the HB Lightning Serum has BLized.
