I have started making all the little pieces for the brackets, i still need to make the mounting tabs and a couple smaller pieces for about 6 sets so far, 3 are spoken and paid for already, i'm hoping tomorrow or thursday to be cutting out the rest of the parts needed so friday i can drill out the bolt holes at work and start welding them together this weekend

If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

I've been working on the brackets and i have to change the design of it, the angle of the clutch fork just doesn't work well with the old design so i'll be trying out my new idea over the weekend and hopefully get them working good

As promised..... Pics!!
They are not quite ready to ship since right now all the pieces are just tack welded together, and i need to add a piece to strengthen the piece for the bolt on the lower part so there will not be any worries on durability. i'll be bringing them to work and welding them with the big welders so there will be lots of strength in the welds, again to ensure durability
The part that was giving me trouble was the piece that drops down for the bolt to hook onto for the clutch fork, when i first welded it on it was causing the bolt to bind and it just didn't work smoothly, at least not as smooth as i wanted it to so i honestly didn't want to fully re-design/make what i already had started so i tried turning the piece on an angle to see how that would effect it and it worked a LOT smoother, it feels the same as my V6 bracket so i'm sure it'll work well
on to the pics
In this pic you can see how i turned the piece hanging down on an angle to help it work smoother
I lost one of the hanging pieces so the bracket to the left in the pic is not fully assembled but will be when i take them to work
For installation, i took my grinder to the back side of the clutch fork until a hole started to form and i continued grinding until the hole was the right size
And you can see the 2 bolts used for mounting the bracket in these pics, the ones that are not threaded in
