Here's a few pics of the pier that Brendan mentioned. I went as big as I could afford which has worked out for the best. I was planning on an AP Mach1 / 900GTO but ended up with a MX. Either way, you can't go wrong with a pier that exceeds your current requirements... it will serve you into the future.

What you can't see from the pics is the floating top plate. This top plate is connected to the pier top plate by 4 x M16 bolts. I am currently getting the floating top plate tapped to accept the MX base plate knobs (4 x 3/8" @ 24TPI). Again, as Brendan mentioned, with a change of mount I can always get a new top plate cut and tapped.
