Well, here are the pictures. It's a pretty cheap program, but this would be a basic mockup. I think I am going to purchase Solidworks or Autocad, and then I can draw in there. The mount is 10mm thick, and the place where the motor would be placed is milled out 5mm.

Front:

Back:

I think I may, after the purchase of a better CAD program, just create my dream of a project, my own TVPs, slipperential, battery mounts, etc through CNC. I think I may just go with a simple motor mount for now untill then though, just to get it running.

Thanks!

Edit: You also may notice that there is 0 adjustability on the mount itself. I have a way to adjust it, but it is a surprise!
Edit 2: Uh oh, I just bought Solidworks Student Edition for $90! Looks like I'm going to end up designing my own TVPs, TVP braces, Slipperential, ESC/radio tray, etc. Might as well continue to go full out on this project, right? This is going past insanity.. I think..
