Default RE: Phenom engine mounting rails

Rudeboy, if the mounts aren't true you might try this idea. Put a light coat of heavy grease on the bottom of your engine and mix up a stiff batch of epoxy, [like JB WELD]. Goop the epoxy onto the mount beams and lay the engine down onto the mounts. Once the glue is dry, I would try to run a #6 sheetmetal screw in and cinch it down tight with a hand held driver. If you can't strip the threads with a reasonable amount of man power, they should hold OK against 2 horse power.
