Adam, It's not something that I'd be willing to advise you on without seeing it. I know what's engineered right by eyeball but even photos are deceiving. If you're still concerned I'd try and get someone in your area to have a look - it's amazing what a relatively inexperienced 2nd opinion can spot, it all looks the bloody same after a while.
It will be interesting to read what Craig has to say in it. regards Terry -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Adam Jackson Sent: Saturday, 16 February 2002 11:10 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: HELP please Terry, The brackets on the engine only fit on their respective sides on the sr. So that can't be the problem, the engine seems to sit well with the top/bottom and bottom/bottom setup. I'll take some more pics to show you. Would it cause any major dramas to leave it as is? I have emailed craig from maddat to see what he suggests, but i'd like to sort it out while i have the engine hoist. cheers, Adam ----- Original Message ----- From: "Terry Rudd" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Saturday, February 16, 2002 11:01 PM Subject: RE: HELP please > Adam, > > I can't spot what's wrong from the pics.
