This week I gave up on acid etching the engine/tranny and just sprayed it down with
Purple Power degreaser and scrubbed it with a broom then pressure washed it. Then I fit the frame to the engine after pulling the crank shaft pulley. The only problem is the front engine mount is way off to mounting with the frame. A new different/correct one is on order.
Also I got the new bigger "S" CV joints and flanges. They fit in the drum break hubs perfectly. The only problem is the length is a bit off from the the other CV joints that I had in the past. I now need to make a wheel spacer about .37 inch to put the disk back in line with the calipers.
