Are engine mounts available for homebuilt applications?

The 4 cylinder Franklin engine will fit directly to a Continental 0-200/I0-240 style engine mount. Many homebuilders have thus utilized these type of engine mounts.

The 6 cylinder Franklin engine has a bed type mounting. Some kitplane manufacturers do fabricate engine mounts for the 6 cylinder Franklin. As an alternative, Franklin Aircraft Engines, Inc. can manufacture the "bed section" for your homebuilt application. The builder would then fabricate the attach bars from the firewall to the bed section. Complete engine mounts can be manufactured by Franklin Aircraft Engines, Inc. if there is adequate demand for a particular application.
