The nugget got some bling yesterday. Now I know it all fits in a way it can be made to work I'll start looking at fabbing engine mount stays. Keen to use TTT Performance V6 semi solid mounts as they are strong yet offer some cushion from NVH

Plenty of room for a 4" dump once I get rid of that 4K mount stay. Happy days :thumbup:

yeah the forward facing pipes certainly make the exhaust side of things work out nicely!

definitely not going to be able to close the bonnet without a scoop though by the looks of it hehe :)

The sump is getting in the way of the engine sitting both back further and lower. Looking at ideas and am leaning towards a modded Buick pan but hard to throw away the rigid alloy castie of a VY motor. Possibly will cut the alloy one but haven't had much luck welding alloy pans as far as porosity goes.
