I have drive train installed. I have different shaped bolts for engine mounts, and transmission mounts. Both had same size bolts, now head size and flange is different making it easier to assemble. Best thing about this installation is never having having to use the ill fitting CSR shield. I want to say more about CSR but I won't, you get the picture.

Larry,

I apologize if I missed this earlier in this thread, but what did you use that fit better than the CSR.

I am not a big fan of CSR either.

Thanks,
Bill

TCI shields and a BFH. It ain't easy or fun adjusting stuff to make it fit. I don't think the knot on my left thumb will ever go away, missed swing of a four lbs hammer.

Yesterday was "Backup Day", it involved having the backup harness to interchange quickly with the one in the car. I found out that Weather Pack connectors may look the same but will not plug in due to a difference in slotting. Bob Toy to the rescue, Thanks.

Talk about a monkey and a football, it had to be fun to watch with me and my hands and Weather Pack pins. I got it done, but should have watched You Tube.

Headers on the DP Challenger are evil on the even cylinder side. No room for my hands or wrenches, I do have a new 10mm universial socket comming.

Have you ever tried to put headers on a FE powered Mustang? That's the definition of "evil" LOL
