Well ,here she is .... all ready for welding tomorrow. Maybe I will make it to Glamis with her?
Motor fits the cradle very well. Any gaps you see are probably " Sharpie" marks.. There are no "Butt Welds" anywhere. The tubing either is fitted into a socket and indexs together about 1/2", or has a 3" piece of 3/4 solid bar inside, and will be plug welded.
Pipe hugs the "Y" nicely, and the radiators fit with no issues.
The lower tabs are 1/4" 6061 T6... look across the frame and you can see one of the lower plug weld holes.
Close up of the "Y". Lots of room for the coolant crossover hose, exhaust springs, and everything else.
I'll post some more when the real motor is in, and the accessories are getting hooked up!

Chain alignment is off....
You sure that chain isn't just rusted into that shape?
Did Hellbear hook that thing last time he went fishing, or did it come with the motor (since they match)?

I got a few pm's wanting a better photo.... here's a "sneek peek"... The motors in, you wont believe how OEM it looks....
No misaligned billet pieces..
No " The bigger the glob, the better the job welds..."
No " Rhacks" quality work...
ANYBODY can reproduce this with a sawsall, a die grinder, and some good ol' fashion Hoon attitude! No bending or trick machinery needed...
I'll post some more when its 90 % assembled.
