I just had a complete bracket and lockout set made out of aluminum from a forum member's drawings.

I actually made up a set of drawings. Just haven't found a local shop to do the work.

S550Will,
I found the drawings I sent into the machine shop are off slightly. I will be sending them an updated revision for the rails this will make the fit and finish spot on.

Looks good. I already have the lockouts. I just need the brackets.

I would really like to use my 17 engine cover again. Is anyone making or selling brackets? Seems like this is a good business opportunity.

Just find a panel shop - I had one fashion me up a fix in a few hours. Sits a few mm higher than the stock manifold, but still easily fits under the strut brace.

I hated my 18 engine cover and just cut the center section out and threw it back on.

We are talking about 17 engine covers, not 18!
I know this, Captain Obvious. I had looked for an older engine cover before modifying mine.

Could you share the drawing/ file of these mounting brackets?
