The engine mounts are finished!
Here is the process.
Started by notching some tube to join the engine plates to the shackle mounts.
I tacked the position on the car and then removed them to weld the main part of the tube that joins the plate on the bench.
Back on the car and some more tack welds to get the final position.
The whole time I am checking the alignment of the motor with the diff using a laser pointer.
After that I had to press the poly bushings back out so I could finish all the welding and then gave them a coat of paint.
After they were dry I pressed the bushings back in and installed them on the car.
It's 51mm behind the original firewall as per the WTAC pro-am rules.
The crossmember fits around the dry sump pan perfectly
This last photo shows how nothing sits below the frame rails, the lowest point is actually the trans adapter plate and I shaved about 10mm off that to get everything as low as possible.
I have actually made a pretty good start on the transmission mount but I'll save that for another update.
