Re: Woodfin's SS GT/TB construction series
Todd,
I am OK with the front plate situation. The idea is to have the plate fully contact the frame, it is resting on the frame rails with engine at installed height. Tabs secure the plate to frame. For me, it is not an issue to remove the plates to remove the engine. The final install is still under fine tuning. the engine will be lifted out at least one more time to finalize some welding details and paint. Keep an eye on me and continue to post thoughts. I appreciate the feedback from everyone and it gives me a smile that folks are watching the buildup.

I like shinny stuff
 The Super 10 is closer to a race truck each day.

Re: Woodfin's SS GT/TB construction series
The Super 327 is back on the stand for the finishing details. Senders, crank trigger, distributor, and intake.
It will be finished and back in place shortly.

Re: Woodfin's SS GT/TB construction series
While engine is out for last time we are finish welding/fitting motor plate tabs. You can just see working the crossmember notch.
I hindsight, I jumped the gun with paint work. We have ground and welded a number of painted areas. But it's OK, I have a touchup gun and a paint store just down the street.

Re: Woodfin's SS GT/TB construction series
Repainting isn't a problem. I have done it at least 5 times with at least one to go.
