Can anyone give a brief explanation of the conical engine mount, and why it's built the way that it is. Not that I intend building one, just curious as to why the mount points are turned inwardly and appear to be focused at some point - is this a theoretical focus point that has the CG of the engine at it's focus?

It has the center of vibration as the focus.
