1JZ Engine Mount Question

I am trying to fabricate some suctom mounts atm and I was wondering If anyone had a 1JZ engine mount lying around as I need some measurements off of one.
Basically All I need is the stud lenght at either end (i.e. how much they stick out each way) and the width and length of the mount if they were square from rubber to rubber (i.e. not the measurements of the metal section as it is bigger and overhangs and I am going to compensate for this with steel plate)
I dont need the height of the mount (stud to stud) as I know how big my new ones have to be, and I am hoping to go and get some polyurethane today so I can start making them tonight when i get home from work
any assistance is much appreciated

they dont line up properly on the GZ 20 x member
plus one is pretty farked and i dont want to spend $300 on a new one
I have done the conversion in my car with the stock x member and everything lines up perfect apart from the mounts, which I plan to rectify now
the only reason I did that was becuase at the time I could not find a JZA70 X member for less than $500

Fair call Thought it might've been for a reason like that.

well also the way I see it, I can help out other soarer owners looking to do the 1JZ conversion, if i can get the specs for these mounts I am making and get an engineer to asses them and declare them safe then I can provide a better alternative to people wanting to do the 1JZ conversion in a 1GGTE powered car, bearing in mind it will only work if the car has a rear sump originally, you use a JZA70 rear sump along with an R154
plus the engine sits back a fair bit which I like becuase it means less weight over the front wheels and more room for a thicker radiator

I ordered some custom made mounts to swap a 1JZ into a MZ10.
They are made to fit a 1JZ into any car that had an M series engine. That being said they might not quite fit your purpose. Possily could be adapted though??
B.T.W. I currently have a MA70 halfcut at the moment I could get some measurements off it if you want just a matter of waiting a little however as the engine will be in there for a little while yet.
