Rear Eng Support

Post by GFresh »

Here's an update on the work for the rear engine support.

I made some new bumper brakets that double as a rear eng bar support mounts, this was to take some of the stress off the swing box as the new engine is a little bit heavier, the box also had a little bit of meat taken out of the bellhousing area to accomadate the larger flywheel.

all the stuff I have done so far has been done without modifying the main shell so pretty happy with that. :D

only 1 week to DOTVW 09, can't wait :wink:
