I can't remember off the top of my head but I'm going to guess since it has the versa pattern on it, I should be able to directly mount it with only a few holes. That would more than likely greatly help the sag we experienced. Reason for asking about WCP DS was because I would like to use them in a WCD this fall. I also see it as a plus that the chain/belt runs are below the gear assembly instead of the external 3rd stage we had with the ball shifters.

If you do a west coast drive with the COTS stuff that WCP/Vex sells (including the WCP DS) you will
be very happy. Personally I prefer 25 chain over the 9mm HTD belts (if you look at the Gates Manual and do the math this makes sense).
I haven't seen one but I feel like I show throw up a cad model I have of a COTS WCD. To use the versa rails with the DS it's basic drilling/boring. You need to make precise-ish slots to use the WCP WCD Bearing blocks, or just a big hole if you want to do go with the versa bearing block.
If you are unfamiliar with the nitty gritty details of building a wcd look around on CD and you will find lots of information. As with everything there is a right way to do it, and a wrong way to do it.
