I know what ya mean, I had mine in the air for so long I forgot how low to the ground it was supposed to be.  Was about two weeks before I got used to it being down there.  hee hee.

Looking good man!

Thanks,

Suspension parts cheap

Will have to cut the sheet metal and fabricate a new piece so the alternator doesn't rub .

here are the after shots in the cradle.  Must say the FerioROG brackets worked great!!

[Simple Man]

Engine all cleaned up and resealed. FerioRog bracket to relocate alternator to power steering pump location worked great!!

here are the before shots

[Simple Man]

I got the Rodney Dickman poly mounts and the FerioRog 3800 engine and trans mounts in and mounted to the cradle!  Nice products from both!!

[Simple Man]

I'm really liking the Lizard Skin, it so easy to use!!! Final application of the ceramic heat shield at 4am this morning   The firewall has a real solid sound to it now.  Just have to top coat the product once it has cured.

[Simple Man]

Made some sheet metal pieces for the stretch area and sprayed the fire wall with Lizard Skin - sound.  I really like this product, so much easier than dyna matt or an equivalent product.  Will spray the Lizard Skin Heat shield tonight.

[Simple Man]

Cleaned up some of the engine components.  Used boiling water bath then aluminum de-greaser, followed up by dawn.  Like the transmission, I soda blast them, then metal prep then paint.  Obviously the gasket surfaces and or critical areas are protected from blasting.
