Engine Mount Jig

[AussieHard]

I don't have access to my bike at the moment and I was wondering if someone can help me out with the positioning of the engine mounts.

I want to make up a jig that sits inside the frame and attaches to all the mounts.

Front, Back, Bottom and top. If anyone can provide a quick sketch with some dims be much appreciated.

If you weren't a world away, I'd be happy to send you mine. I actually welded in-place before I started the frame modifications. Came off the bike in one piece when all was complete. Worked like a charm. Motor went back in with no issues.

You can see it in this photo.

I have one just laying around rusting, you can have it for the cost of shipping if you like...

This thread made me think about something.

Do you guys that chop frequently prefer to do so with the engine in or with a jig?

A jig prevents any possible damage to the engine, from cutting & welding. Also allows you to work on the engine at same time as the frame. Helpful when waiting on parts or services.
