A different design for torque arm mount

Was searching on Ebay for something and stumbled across this.

The torque arm mount design looks interesting however I'm not sure I like the 2 mounting points idea. I suppose it depends on how the front of the torque arm is attached.

The torque arm mount is different than what's listed on their web page

Re: A different design for torque arm mount

I've seen that before, or something VERY much like it...

Looks OK, except that it's incompatible with the floor pan. I guess it'd be OK in a race car, but wouldn't be too pleasant in a street-driven one.
