I had the centering pin placed at the correct spot for 1972 springs which is 22" from the main eye.

Thanks. I have spent lots of time reading 7dee2 s build. I am pretty far along on the build already. Posting the pitcures is really difficult for some reason they keep flipping..

Here are a few of the engine mounts. I decided to use 1973 up style because I wanted the improved engine mounts. I had to slice the top of the mounts off and shorten them. Once cut the flange was bolted into the frame it was then tacked in place. I welded them up on the bench. The engine crossmember is from ORD its the big block engine crossmember. I took my time using the frame alignment holes to make sure everything was square. The frame was kept level while fitting the crossmember.

Flip for Ya.

What works for me on the Picture Stuff.
I load them to the PC
Then (edit) every one.
Then (always) hit the Preview post button to see if I messed up.

By the way Great Job
