History: I am converting to a side shift tranny on an early car, but the front motor mount(beam) that I got from someone in the club was bent and didn't fit. Everyone told me that that was impossible, but..... shit. I just realized I don't have the picture of the bent one..... Anyways, it was. Everyone also told me not to fabricate one, but I've never been good at listening. So anyways, my brother and I designed a new beam and he welded it up. It fits perfect, there's no interference with the shift linkage(or anything else), AND it's a even few pounds lighter! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/boldblue.gif) Why wasn't I supposed to do this?

Mark D. people take things the wrong way...it had NOTHING to do with you not being able to make it, what was meant by it was that why spend the equivilant of hundreds of dollars of labor and tools needed for something you could have bought for $20..... we've all been guilty of it, no harm no foul (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) looks good.... |
