I also had to slightly "modify" the body with my Dremmel tool to remove a bit more glass where the pipes had been touching the body. That was the first sign that the engine was moving more that I expected.

Mr. Fixit

I am running a brand new billet steel flywheel so I don't think I want to spring for an aluminium one right now, but thanks for the idea.

I have been looking at my setup and this winter I am going to fabricate a bracket that will attach to the front of the left head. This will be the upper mounting point for a radius rod that will have rod ends, LH one end, RH the other. The lower end will mount on the frame of the car. This LH,RH thread arrangement will allow for adjustment, similar to a turnbuckle. I will let you know if this works well.
