OK pattywagon, which are you wanting? blue flat pan or a black tub chassis? color doesn't matter either way I guess but if I'm thinkin right you need a pic of a tub chassis mounted motor...

yeah thanks, guess you cant use pull start motors on these :?

the backing plate on the motor would keep the motor from sitting flush on the mount!

oh the GT's will be going to their new owner soon!

There is a different pull-start motor mount for the flat chassis'. It is taller and doesn't have the bar across the back.

Yep, I'm aware of a motor mounts for gts but your question had me confused. This is a pullstart mount for a blue flat pan:

I believe the .12 thru .18 mounting holes are the same. I recently won a RC10GT blue pan with a O.S .18 and is in route. I can verify it once it's here.
Some are installing big block .21 or larger and it is just overkill.

They are OK for bashing but a little hard to control. Way more than you'll use for power.
