Edie: The Dart
Hey y'all here is that perfect Monday project:
It's a good feeling to have that 'A' pillar rot under control, everything else is everything else.
I hopped into the bay and stripped off all the stuff off the engine and the front valance:
Then proceeded to remake my engine mounts, yeah, I could by them but they sure are pricey, and there is something about rolling your own. :D
Last time I kind of winged it, not knowing there was a measurement to go by, giving header clearance issues galore.
Thanks to TTI footnotes #32, SB factory measurements are: 2 3/8 offset to passenger side frame rail to center of crank, and 5 7/8 from the top of K frame to center of crank.
They fit well, taking my time I'll have about 4 days into them start to finish. Sure was enjoyable! Engine weight is on them this weekend, I'll buzz them together on Monday and move on to the next project.
Happy Weekend!
