Mounting my engine in the chassis

Recently I had more time than money and got bored, so I set my engine back another 4.5". This ment I could redo my engine mounting system better. I will be adding a link from the blk center engine mounts to the front crossmember. This will help keep the engine from moving front to back in a hard launch.

Take a look at the pics

Extra pic

An extra couple pics.

PS I am trying to catch my project journal up to the current date, but since I started late on the journal it will take some time. Check it out anyway in projects.

Drag Car

It's a drag racing car. This is my first project car of any kind. I did not know about this site until I was half done with the car so most of it I figured out my self. I don't claim it's right because I am an armature. I am hoping the car will run low tens or high nines in the quarter mile. I have had a NHRA chassis inspector view the pics along the way and make suggestions. Also Jeg's has been a great help. Check out my project journal.
