Engine Cradle - Phase 3

It took a while to get the adapter plate and clutch assembly for the SHO 3.2 to the 914. Once that was installed I could finalize the engine cradle.
First I had to test-fit the supports with the engine. The cradle had to be placed on cinder blocks to give me enough clearance to get the engine lift under the cradle. Back and forth a couple of times to adjust and locate the vertical supports was all that was needed.



Now its back on the ground and assembly of the engine components can continue. Basically anything needed to run the engine has to be added so I can test all components and wiring before attempting to install in the 914.
