Hi y'all, names rj and I'm doing a build but have only experience on previous build.
Previous was just a standard pk80 on a normal mountain bike but now I wanna make my daily and d cruiser's pipes are think diameter. Where can I source mounts to make this easier, cause I'm F'ing lost rn.

The bar for the seat post is 32mm
And the bottom bar is 43.8mm?

Does the engine fit the seat post? I make a custom front bracket with a piece of flat bar and a muffler clamp. First drill two hole that correspond with the two on the engine of one side of the flat bar and then two more on the other side for the muffler clamp. Replace the engine studs with two short bolts and bolt the flat to the engine, then use the muffler clamp to secure the whole thing to the down tube. I 1 3/4" muffler clamp will work on that down tube.

Unfortunately I don't have a picture of the simpler type mount. I sold the last one of those. This bike I customized the mount a bit more because I needed to raise the engine in the frame to help clear the pedals.

This is something that has always disturbed me with most of the kit bikes when it comes to motor mounts...Usually the rear mount will fit just fine but the front mounts are just atrocious...This is why I made my own which is pictured below...It is hand crafted and fitted to my Hyper Beach Cruiser with my Zeda 80 triple 40 motor.

This front motor mount would probably work OK for a ready made part.
