Of course, it's going to be double triangulated with 2 bolts to the engine heads, 2 bolts on the intake manifold, and 2 on the engine block/power steering pump. There is also going to be an L bracket up against the heads to help even the weight out. I don't see it going anywhere. Right now, with that plate alone, I can move the whole car with it.
Now I have to find a 2X2' 1/4 steel plate and get to work on the front piece. Lowes ain't sell anything that big, so I might have to go to a machine shop or the local steel place and hope they don't rape me on price. (Not that Lowes is doing much better)
As far as cooling, the gauge for the electric motor can show temperature/rpm/battery remaining, I plan to get a reading when it's operational and ask the guys I got it from what they think if I need extra cooling. I was thinking a fan sucking out to the fender should do the trick if need be.
