Ultimate Engine Mounting
As I said in a different post this is my first gasser. So I am posting pics of my progress mounting the engine to help spot any problems before I go to far. Tonight I drilled the holes and bolted it on. I had to put it as far over to the side as possible to allow for the built in right thrust in the firewall.
The standoffs are built from plywood that I glued together then used a hole-saw to cut out. This also put a 1/4" hole through the center of them. The builts are 1/4X20 3" stainless steel bolts, with washers and a lock nut on the other end.
I plan on cutting out an opening behind the carb to allow for easy hookup of the linkages.
I will post further pics as I make progress. Any thoughts/suggestions appreciated!
Thanks
