StewCrew Posted April 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 Also pointing out that I pretty much went full retard yesterday. The reason the motor mount stud wasnt long enough was because the mount arm was upside down. I forgot the motor sits so tilted and that the mount should be close to the headers.

The harness is on and once I get some new clamps for the fuel lines and put the drive belt on, it should be ready to start! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowleym Posted April 14, 2013 Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 Question- how should I effectively take my radiator core support off? Hack it off? Mine is kind of bent, so I at least have to build the bottom part custom. Hopefully my front end comes together and lines up... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StewCrew Posted April 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 Question- how should I effectively take my radiator core support off? Hack it off? Mine is kind of bent, so I at least have to build the bottom part custom. Hopefully my front end comes together and lines up...I cut the middle section out first, leaving only the 4 corners. Then from there it's just drilling out tack welds. My lower part was so rusted that I couldn't even find the tack welds, so I just used an impact chisel on the seams. The tops where the fenders sit on was easy, but the lower parts were kind of a pain. I pretty much hacked the bottom ones off. Because drift car.When you pick up those motor mount arms you're welcome to swing by and check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
