Re: 49/51 3100, 4bt Turbo, ZF-5, Classic

Cut out some more box plates to go back to where transmission crossmember starts.

Also, marking up the frame to figure out where everything goes.

Cut and roughed in the transmission crossmember. It is a Jimenez Bro's Custom crossmember. Adjustable up down forward back.

Will be welding box plates this week and will need to figure out fabrication of mounts that go on the frame.

From today's measurements it looks like the engine may fit without firewall modification with rear cylinder in the firewall recess some. Don't know about transmission clearance thou. The zf-5 is huge.
