Pat / Ron,

I'm glad you brought this up. I know Ron was planning on mounting the trans the way he described to you before he sold it to me. I have just begun to look at this and while I still do not have a engine block to bolt up to my 016, it looks to me that the cross brace will have to be modified to clear the trans, which is no big deal. Also, the ears were cut off of my cross brace and I was wondering what was planned to stabilize the engine and trans. (one of the big reasons I wanted to go to the Run & Gun) Maybe Herschal can chime in here.
