ATS conversion mounts???

has anyone used these on their 3rd gen?

from their site
By flipping the engine mounts upside down, the LSX sits lower in the chassis, and as far back against the firewall as possible to promote good weight distribution and improve center of gravity.
just wondering how much it will effect the rest of the drivetrain. Trans crossmember? driveshaft? position wise?

thanks

Be the guinea pig and let us know how it works. Issues I see is the shifter sitting back another inch or so even more out of place with the stock console, and the driveshaft yoke that slips into the tranny, I think there would be enough slack for 1" however.
