Things seem to be going kind of slow this week. But did get a few things done. Got the starter mount hole cut and starter fitted. Welded a stud in one place and a backing nut in another to allow the trans to mount. Need to do some countersinks for a few bolts on the motor but the tool didn't show up in time. For test fitting the few bolts I have are just fine.
Tipped up the motor, put the trans on and tossed it into the car. There are several interference areas that need to be addressed that are not allowing the engine to lower to where I had it before. But with enough cutting and welding just about anything "fits" :-)3.6 VR6 in a GT6 and made RWD. Components used in the car: 2006 Passat VR6 (3.6L) 1970 Triumph GT6 BMW Getrag 5 speed BMW E36 188mm (medium case) Diff Miata NA series Rear suspension
