gearbox/engine mounts in offroad competition buggies?

I'm interested to see some pics of how people mount their engines and gearboxes in offroad cars. Do you solid mount them? Where do you support the front of the tranny (kombi boxes)? Do you use a Berg style front mount? Do you have 3 supports? nosecone, belhousing and engine? or just nosecone and engine?

This is how I went about doing mine. I used a cheap solid mount kit with straps, then tied the engine into the cage using a simple hand build mount. The rollcage was later tied into the frame horns for additonal supprt. It is pretty basic, but seems to get the job done. Later on, I used a variation of the same mount to install an 091 box.
