peej410 Posted April 23, 2005 Share Posted April 23, 2005 http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/peej410/album?.dir=b912 as you can see... its LOW hehe which means i need to get a diff pan (thanks grumpy) the only thing i dont like so far is the transmission crossmember bracket that bolts to the urethane transmission mount. let me know what you experts (and non experts) think of this design..

wheelman Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 There were a couple Ford 302s with similar motor mounts that reported the frame rails started twisting, something to keep an eye on. Looking good though and that engine is very low and far back in the bay, what oil pan are you planning to use? Wheelman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peej410 Posted April 24, 2005 Author Share Posted April 24, 2005 thanks guys, my frame rails are 2x3 1/8th wall and the motor mounts have an extra piece of 1/8th on them thatll be fully welded, after much contemplating i decided this setup would be strong enough. however if i do notice any twisting ill probably convert this to a cradle setup. http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=100329 grumpy suggested a pan in this thread to me and i think im going to heed his advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
