Ramfins59 Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 Can anyone who has built this kit please tell me how and where they attached the front of the engine to the chassis..?? The instructions are very vague in showing this, and there does not appear to be any positive attachment point. I know that the transmission tailshaft attaches to the tranny crossmember, but I can't see where the front of the engine or the oil pan would attach to the chassis. Would pinning it somehow, somewhere make a more secure bond..?? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.
my80malibu Posted April 14, 2014 Posted April 14, 2014 I have never built one of those but on the 1-1 cars did they not have a horseshoe mount?
Ramfins59 Posted April 15, 2014 Author Posted April 15, 2014 Never mind. I solved the problem by adding a small piece of sheet plastic to the top side of the tie rod center piece, glued the front of the oil pan to that, and drilled a hole in the center of the transmission crossmember and into the spot where the tranny sits on it and pinned it in place.
