motor mounts: done





oil cooler blockoff: done



injectors: done





also sprayed a ton of undercoat on the underneath the cab and frame and cut out the rest of the exhaust

bolted the tranny to the engine but theres problems





the TC bolts are a little more inset from the flywheel i will have to grind on the flywheel i think

not sure how to cover this, do i need some kind of special dustplate?



thanks to phil for his help today, still have a long way to go but gettin it done
