Default Anyone have a picture of 1" setback mounts?

Looking for a picture of 1" setback mounts with the 70's style mounts installed? I bought a set but am not sure where the standard 70's style mount should end up.

Anyone have a picture?

Thx.

I made my plates out of 1/2" Alum. Using the standard Template that was found in the FAQ up top. Then using pictures of other plates, I found or measured where the 1" setback holes were.

The difference between the standard and 1" setback (from what I can see/mesure) is that the lower engine mount bolt hole is 1" forward and 3/16" lower that on the standard plates. Here are a few pictures that might help you.

Template of standard plates. I just moved the mounting holes forward 1" and down 3/16".
