For those of you that reached out to me with your responses, I thought I would update you. I don't have any pics at this time, but will get some this afternoon.

I had some help recently and we got everything loosened and or taken apart - then got everything centered and level. When we did, we got bot pipes closer to the hole center but not as good as I would like.

The pipes are coming through both holes with about 1 finger width on top and 3 finger width on the bottom. After talking with ERA and others, i don't know how I am going to make it better than that. I am using the mounts ERA gave me and when doing so they engine does not rest all the way down in the frame mounts but that is not uncommon. I don't know if I want to go to extreme measures to get the engine a little lower, but if I do I guess I am going to have to find different mounts (those ERA mounts are thick!). I am also wondering if over time the engine will come to rest a bit lower than it is today and changing out the mounts would only be a worthless effort.

Anyway, I hope to have some pics for you later today, but thank you all for your kind words...

Kramer
