I had planned on just bolting the mount to the firewall. I had heard that if you don't weld it in place its easier to slip the engine in. The car is going in for the LineX undercoating next week and The firewall will be coated too. If I'm going to weld it in, now is the time.
Anyone have an opinion? |

I assume you're talking about a Rich Johnson mount. You can get by with just bolting it on, but it's probably best to weld it in as well.
It doesn't make any difference on the ease of installing the engine. |
