Retaining the OEM mounts and getting the Banzai Tranny mount is def an option, I've just been waiting for FFE to get their mounts into production since I first saw them in the conception phase... I figure since I'm on hold for money right now anyway, and it wouldn't kill me to wait a little bit longer to get the mounts I want on from the get go... Why even fuck around with the possibility of needing to reseal the pan if I swap into the mounts I want 6 months after installing the engine?
I can be patient, VERY patient, when it comes down to it...
Last year I rushed it and now I'm paying for it.

Yeah, and I figure the Optima Red Top will be more battery than I need...

I try to be considerate, and I've seen you, Glenn, Jenn, and Ted bitch enough to know better than to be "that guy"... especially not with somebody I like

Yeah, that was the plan... and then the day after DGRR happened

I haven't yet, though I would really like to during this down period. I just need to pull information an organize a how-to/DIY so I can get it done in my garage, but NOT pay like $250 for a premade "kit" that is just $100 in line/fittings and a couple valves.

You and/or Glenn did suggest getting the TC option but I opted out since it's not likely something that I will *need* at this time...
