Reply to "Finally, engine is going into the car"

I have seen engines hoisted by the plate bolted to the carb mounting flange on a single 4v intake. Not on an 8 stack intake or a multiple carb intake.

I felt I had more control by making the t and mounting to the heads at the exhausts. It helped sooth my paranoia.

It did take several tries to get the insertion angle just right.

I'm sure that everyone has their little tricks particularly in a Pantera. I can only pass along mine and have no intention of criticizing other cautions.

The comment of "the Devil is in the details" does apply itself here. Differences in equipment will likely alter the approach to take. Seemingly everything in a Pantera is a little different then what one expects. Even experienced mechanics and engineers?

Certainly the Detomaso factory had their own well engineered approach. You are only doing one, not thousands. Have fun discovering!
