did you see this post about the TRUE backing plate that has collars to keep from bending the PCB ? It works way better that the Veetec Pro-mount , lets you attach the back plate to the mobo & not have it move & makes swapping out blocks WAY easy .. I put a small grommet & nut on the top of the screws to hold the mount on better right at the PCB this keeps the PCB from flexing & you can tighten the block down hard without fear of warpage ... here's da link

sidewinder has them as does Cyber Druid (he'll send the right screws )

the screws are throw aways as u want the 3 inch 3mm screws that comes with VeeTec V2 uni mount not the pro mount
That mount kit at sidewinder looks like its exactly the same as the d-tek pro mount, and the d-tek fuzion v2 stock mount.

It'd be great if you could test clearance with the MPC-X38 and post a pic of it. Once I confirm it will fit, I will swap it in, as well as swap in my brand new Fuzion V2 with quad plate. I got the V2 just for the sake of having the two barbs spaced farther apart, so I can use clamps on both of them.

I know some people who can get clamps on both barbs of the V1. I however simply can't do that, they are just better than me I guess
