1972 Dodge Colt
Current progress.
Block plate in the right place now.
Bell ground, just a little.
30 degree tilt, done.
And the motor only fell out 1 1/2 times during this work.
That tilt on the engine is really a challenge.
I can get the distributor in, but can't get the oil pump in or out.
I have to cut a tube to make that work, really want to be able to service the pump.
But the block plate, bellhousing and transmission is in for fit.
In this picture you can see the Airheart master cylinder. Old school!
I have ordered the mount tabs from Alston, but they aren't shipping any parts.
