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.
