Scanned the frame earlier today. Moving the engine back 3.5". Drew up some motor mounts this evening to reflect that change. These will get cut out on the plasma table tomorrow, old mounts cut off and new ones welded on.

Engine back 3.5”? Firewall not in the way? Any issue with the transmission tunnel?

Engine is going to be really tight to the firewall but we are fighting for every inch of room to fit the largest rad/fan combo possible. Trans tunnel is getting completely reworked... between the h55 and black box there is something like 13 extra inches of drivetrain to stuff under the floor so it was screwed to begin with
 
Good looking welds on those motor mounts!!!
 
Now getting body mounts (that's the 'fitment' 1fz) and the real, coil-packed, turbo 1fz-fe, that now has the Spool rods and pistons inside.

Another scanning party on Friday, this time for the bumpers/sliders and inside of the 55.

Got the kid's 80 series back. Swapped the supercharger out for the same turbo setup, better wheels, better brakes, fixed even more stuff that LCH did poorly or worse.
