Default RE: Engine Mounting

wow this is first class service! thanks very much. i was just cleaning out my drawers and i happen to find a small drill bit....it fit perfectly in the engine mount holes so i decided to see if i could at least drill the holes....everything went fine and the holes are all perfectly aligned. I used a pinch of flower to mark the hole, i grabbed a small nail and hammer, tapped a little ***** into the plastic, and then went on to drill the holes through.

The strange thing is...i never bought this bit and neither has my dad.....weird how things seem to show up in your room after you neglect to clean it for a long time.

I will go get the hardware from one of those stores tomorrow. Its not exactly roomy though...how should i hold the nut in place while im screwing in the bolt? special tool for this? I dont think i could even fit my pinky finger in the space between the engine and the plane, let alone hold a nut in place. got any tips for me?

Thanks so much.
