Nothing yet. Still have to fabricate mount brackets for Audi hydro mounts.

My plan: figure out how low I can mount the engine then fabricate mount brackets to that position but leave room within the mount bracket so I can install box steel or whatever under each mount to raise the drivetrain at engine, should I ever make a custom intake or swap to a 1.8 head etc. I think that's doable. i.e. lowering the engine via the mounts is more work than raising it. I think.

I transferred a mark from WBX crank OC to rear apron.

Neil.
