Here is a couple of pictures of the engine mock up, we are in the process of making motor mounts. The engine has been set back about two inches and dropped down a little more than an inch.

What are the small blue pieces on the muffler brackets? I've never seen something like that.

High temp silicone grommets. The purpose of these is to issolate the exhasut system from the frame. Here is the description from the stainless works website.


" Are your exhaust grommets melting?? Blue "Snapper" Grommets-High Temp Silicone-these hold up better and are have the best heat resistance that we have found!!! Designed to fit around a strap with a 5/8" through hole, and use a 3/8" through bolt. 1 1/8" od, 7/8" thick. Works great for isolating exhaust vibration from mounting bolts when attached exhaust system to hangers and frame."

Very cool :thumbsup:

I'm 'local' and need to come see this thing for myself when I get time :hail:

I wasn't really feelin' the old transmission mount so I cut it out and made a new one with a driveshaft loop included. I designed it to look similar to the motor mounts.
