OK, its been a while and I thought pics would be up by now, but I have
limited time to get anything done.  The mounting system for the ford 2.3 is
in place, looks pretty trick, don't know if it will actually work yet.
It supports the motor, but may transmit vibrations, not sure.
I'm gonna put rod bearings in the 2.3 motor, the originals don't look bad,
but at 15 bux for bearing set from the dealer, I couldn't refuse;)

Called KEP and ordered up a stage 2 pplate and stock clutch disc.  Hobart
said this will hold 220 ft-lbs, so should be ample.

Will give update again on Sunday.  Cya, Pat.

BTW, loaf seats are in the dumpster, nobody wanted them:(
