Search for "sdpatt engine brace".
He has a really good write up on what he used.
I think the bolt hole that holds the intake brace is used on the right rear.

On the back side of the rear head throttle body side there is a hole you can install a M10*1.5mm bolt or stud in there. You will see it when you get under the car and look in the general area.

I built mine from SDPATT measurements, worked great. I didn't use the metal bracket shown between the rear support chain and head stud; just put plenty of shop rags between the chain *** the head/valve cover.

Remember if your support is a once piece type to make the eye bolt hole left of center over the engine to create a little lean of the engine toward the drivers side...makes removing/replacing the tranny much easier.

Thanx for the quick replies and help! I was able to remove the subframe and the engine is well supported.
