So to bring this thread back from the dead and update.....
Rad had a neat plate idea and I'm going to intergrate it in the second plate.
On of the things you get to do again, is when the thickness of the Mondello flywheel wasn't figured in during the mockup stage.
OOOOOOpps
One thing I never gave a thought to was the Mondello flywheel/Torque Converter verses the stock flexplate/torque converter overall length.
I thought that with the increased thickness (3/16") of the engine midplate shown above the TC/Flywheel clearance would be enough well it wasn't.
So I'm going to make a second plate out of the same material and make the center hole diameter big enough to get the Torque Converter/flywheel out and still keep the original plate with the engine.
Actually this will be a strong sucker being a final sandwiched thickness of 3/8" thick.


And I had to move the engine foward 1/4" as I couldn't move the tranny/transfercase back as my four link mount is 1/8" from the rear of the transfercase.
Good thing the MORE engine mounts can be easily modified.
(BTW some of you may notice the right side of the frame mount has been severly modified, thats to make room/area for the "secret project" Correct MC????)
