      Nice work, is the skid plate for M20 or M42? By the looks of it, it's the lower hanging M42. If you should decide to make more for the 318s let me know and again, good work. ;)

          It's for m20.

          Thanks for all the responses, I never thought so many people would be interested in one! For now, though, I just don't have the time to make any more. It probably took me ~20 hours to make this all up, start to end.

          Anyways, If I ever get the time to make a few more up I'll be sure to post up.

                Not to take away from your thread but I would like to challenge this.





                Load goes into both the sides and bottom of the chassis rails. I don't have any actual pics with the skid plate installed but it goes from the radiator support to the engine crossmember, much like yours.

                Great work though!

                        For all you guys wanting to buy one. I sell a nice plate for $165. let's see at 20 hours labor and steel. I think its a good deal. I have plates for all stock motor and most swaps

                          OP: Great job, but since he wisely doesn't want to make more I have to say I love my Raceskids skid plate and cross brace, once I get my turbo car on the road I'll have to pick up another one
