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.
