didn't get a lot done today unfortunately... didn't wake up until late late and felt rather unmotivated until about 6pm .andysapp wrote:How did things go today? Good progress?!?
the progress for today:
built the engine side mounts, used the inner portion of the stock "clamshell" that used to hold the rubber mount and used 3/16" plate to build the rest. just doing hotrod style solid mounts.
picture of shifter alignment, the shifter will be close to centered in the stock hole but just about a half inch foreward. the cool thing about the T56 is that i can make my own shifter so i'll just make an S-bend shifter if the reach on it sucks.
and i have to give a huge thanks to my friend Nick (spyder on here) for busting out his skills and making me a cluster with my gauges. we'll clean the appearance up later, but it's kickass and functional (and better than anything i could've made in an afternoon).
final mounting will be done tuesday when i'm off work. i'll finish up the bottom mounts and do the trans mount.
