Yes, but I need the angle of the engine to sit a specific way for the boost tubes. Otherwise... I'd be all over that. I mean... it shouldn't be too bad. All I need to do is loosen motor mounts and the pull it forward a bit.

If you are wondering why I didn't mark the mounts. I actually did... here comes the but...

BUT..

I mounted the engine mounts on backwards previously. AFTER I mounted it on incorrectly, I put on additional thicker black marks while mounted incorrectly.

This is all learning and fabrication pains. I'm learning tolerances are not necessarily a bad thing.
