I got some more work done within the last few weeks. I was able to remove the V6 motor mounts and install the ones for the V8. It wasn't to hard to do. I used the plasma cutter to cut off the exsisting bolts. As far as putting them in I was able to do it with 2 long extensions and a swivel. My father inlaw and also completed some work on the engine. We opened it up and torqued all the bolts on the caps and rods. Everthing checked out just fine. I also installed a high volume oil pump and oil pump. A new double roller timing chain was installed as well. There was some slack in the existing one and we were unsure of what was allowed. So with the doubt we decided to install a new one. A new water pump and fan clutch were also installed. Here are a few pics of the engine as of now.
I also picked up the transmission from the builder. I also purchased and installed a new oil cooler for the transmission.
