Default Mounting R2 in a k2-3l

is drilling four holes in the chassis plate a little over kill... if so would two holes should be strong enough?

As said before 2 would work, you may want to use diagnal holes though. Not really 100% needed but would help just a little.

I would also like two use the diagnal holes but I want the tranny to be all the way to the edge of the chassis plate so I can leave the drive shafts the same lenght.. or does that really matter?

Doesn't really matter, but when you get into having spares laying around, having parts that can be interchanged front and rear is a good idea. So instead of spare front and rear specific shafts, you'll just need one.

I only used 2 holes in my 2.2 TXT, and I grenaded the innards of the tranny, but the 2 bolts held it just fine.
