Making the conversion to a 6 cyl, we have several choices to make with mounts, exhaust, fuel, oil tank, engine tin, ....
I recently purchased the OEM mount from Mad Dog, you couldn't ask for a better fit. It nestled into the recess and allowed basically no room for error. I socked it in with a couple self tapping screws and went ahead with the plug and fillet welds. I removed the paint from the mounting surfaces with paint stripper and cleaned it up with a sanding disc prior to welding From what I understand the factory placed additional reinforcement in this area. Running the welds for this mount I sensed it the way my MIG was acting. I bet you could pick the entire car up from this mount. Very well done Mad Dog |

I have some of these new plates on the way to me.. It was great dealing with Dave during the building of these. We went back and forth for what seamed like weeks (really only a few days) getting these just right. Great guy, great products, and great customer service. What more can one ask for. Now buy these up.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

Thanks Luke, I couldn't have made these without help from members like you. This is what I love about this forum, there is always someone willing to help or share knowledge.
