Looks good. I'm running a race skids but...
For those of you worried about cooling. Was running no oil cooler for awhile on my turbo car and oil temps were still low... On a cool night they were too low. I wouldn't worry about venting the plate for cooling.

I'll be sure to let everyone know when I have more ready to ship. This next run will only be 5, then I'll have to wait for more material. I just want to remind everyone of what the first post said about price. I still haven't gotten a price for my cost on these. I'm expecting the final price to go up to around 140. I'm trying to keep the cost down as low as possible though, so I'll do my best. I'm not trying to get rich here.
That price includes shipping, UPS Ground with tracking.

Great deal on these!
Have you thought about making the mounting bolts through the front subframe? On my skid that's where I have them (through two holes that are already there, which I slightly bored out to allow me to use BIG bolts). Might provide a bit of additional structural support and also makes that "S" bend at the back end unnecessary (so you could possibly make them cheaper).
Here's a pic of my setup for rallycross. You can see the bolts on the left, with some small spacers between the skid and the subframe (which I've since removed).
Anyhow, just an idea to make it easier to make, and to allow for some more stout bolts that, if broken somehow, won't screw up the PS rack as well (in theory).
