No grinding but no floating power provision either.

ski,  I will look around I probably still have the parts for the <floating power provision> the rebuilt new style U engine I have was mounted in a PA before I acquired it.  Give me a couple of days to see if I can find this stuff.  I generally don't throw anything out.

Thanks Chet, I appreciate that but I don't think this engine will accept the floating power mount due to it's lack of mounting bosses and holes as Old Man described. Every time I eliminate something it's not I get closer to finding out what it is. I am learning a lot about the whirlwind times WPC was going through during the late 20's- early 30's with the wide array of vehicles offered.

None the less I will still try to locate these parts and post pictures of the engine they came off of.  Could be a day or two.

Ski,

The assembly is still attached to the motor which is buried in a corner of my shed.  I did try to take pictures but found a better picture of the motor when I picked it up a few years back.  I have been saving it for my restoration.  Its a fresh rebuild.  If you need the front 30U/PA mount I will let it go along with the hardware and the good unused motor mount.

See picture below.
