Re: Beer and BBQ.. motors in ... next stage!!!
Is anyone any good at making brackets? Previous motor had ALT on one side and P/S on the other, I need the P/S bracket shortening by about an inch and re-welding as the belt rubs on the thermostat housing
and some kind of bracket to mount the alt..
Today: put the floor plates back in
Re-mounted the Radiator re-connected some of the hoses.
Checked the engine mounts
Fitted and removed the P/S pump.. belt rubbing on Thermo housing
