I was also strongly advised to run a rubber trans mount with the motor plate instead of a solid trans mount. FYI

I was talking to a buddy who put a D3 headed roush motor in a mustang and he said the same thing. I kind of scratched my head, I wouldnt feel comfortable with it really.. If I'd have done that I would have used .750 instead of .5" plate for the front. Hell the drag guys use .250!! But that is with a front and rear plate.... Mine is fairly light with all the pocketing.
Once I actually get the engine totally mounted and done I can post some more pictures of it..
I cut one side of the rear motor plate tonight, I need to finish the cad for the other one and do that (why couldnt ford make the bellhousing symetrical??)
I need to order some more tubing so I can build the subframe... I really need a 1.25" die
anyone have a pro-tools 105 die I can borrow??
