I have decided to make a cradle to support my engine and trans, well more for the trans. SBC engine and Audi 01E trans.
Engine already has the Renegade Hybrids support and I plan to run two 1.5” x 0.120 round tube perpendicular to the back to tie into the factory trans mount supports.
Most of the designs I see here use a tee weld of sorts, or fillet if I have my terminology correct. Basically tube meets flat plate and it is welded together.
I am not an experienced welder by any means, but I wonder if cutting a hole in the plate to allow the pipe to pass through, and welding on both top and bottom is preferred?
Good idea? Overkill, bad idea?
Thanks
