The motor is in position supported only by the motor mounts.

Unfortunately I had to notch the oil pan to clear the k-member.

The motor clears the sock hood BARELY. I had to notch the oil pan and space the k-member down 1 inch to make it fit under the stock hood, but it was worth it.

Those mounts look pretty good. The sump plug relocation after cutting up the sump would have probably been a pain in the butt... Cool that you could lower the engine enough as it should help with CoG, too. :icon_ford:

Thanks mate. This sump is for a customer I just sold a Barra to. After looking at the final location of the sump plug, I think I will put the sump plug a little lower on the next pan I modify. It looks like approximately 1/8 to 1/4 of an inch of oil will not drain all the way. Not a big deal, maybe a few ounces of oil, but it annoys me lol.
