Turning Point In Build

The engine is finally bolted in. It had to be offset to the pssenger side 1", just like a stock EB engine. I made the ZF crossmember myself and fabricated a set of poly mounts for the front motor plate. The mid motor plate will have the same thing eventually, so the engine will be supported on all 4 corners.

Man I like those fender well headers. Looking good.

I like em too. They are VERY well made. 14 gauge tubes and 1/2" flanges. The welds are amazing. Most headers look like a 3 year old welded them. They have crappy header paint on them though. I need to get them ceramic coated before install. Need to install O2 bungs first though.
VERY tight. The starter housing has about 1/4" clearance and the NP205 has about 3/8". All bolted in though.
The engine is offset exactly 1" to the passenger side and I had to move it forward 1" from my initial spot. Now it fits perfectly with no body lift or ctting of the firewall. I did have to trim 1-1/4" out of the engine crossmember though.Just finished my midplate mounts. The midplate is a Kieth Fulp unit, but had to be modified to fit the ZF bellhousing because of the starter and slave cylinder. As you can see I used TMR Customs leafspring shackle hangers with a poly bushing on the aft side. Welded a 1/4" plate on the other of the exact same size (2"x3") to hold it securely. This pic is of the passenger side, the driver's side is the same thing.
