Thanks everyone. Yes, my son is enjoying it. He's learning stuff and I'm enjoying teaching him. We got out to install the muscle car pan on the LQ9 tonight so we can start the process of setting the engine and trans. The body is not setting down completely on the frame yet due to the what I call the drain holes hitting the tubes I installed. I'm sure a little bit of trimming will get it to work right. Maybe tomorrow night I'll tackle that.
I'm also looking at what Stielow did on his engine mounts on his latest project. I'm kind of leaning to copy him and use factory type mounts. Anyone have any thoughts on this? I tried to send him a PM, but his box was full. He's probably busier than a one legged man running a marathon. I have the brackets and the solid mounts from the previous engine that was installed.
HEEP
