i'll take transmission mounts and hardware

Brendan, I did the edit you asked...... You know you can edit a thread title????????? if you created the thread. just go advanced edit.

Crank was drilled by Jay Steel at Taylor Machine. Great place, Great guy. Unfortunately Jay passed this year.

Yes, I used a Pan girdle/spacer made by Mike Simard. It strengthens the webbing as well as spacing the pan.

Mike Simard owns Simard Tool. I would try contacting him at the Pelican site.

The spacer is okay with the IJ system, but some stuff must be changed. And with that much space added, you MUST use Mike's Studs. I don't know if he has made any more however.

Hi BrendanC --

Some questions based on your engine build thread. Nice pics, by the way.

Where did you get your crank drilled?

Did you use an oil pan spacer in your engine as well? If you did, it slipped by when I was reading the thread on your engine.

Do you know where to buy a spacer and a whole set of studs for an '87 s4? You mentioned Simard Tool Co., who should I contact there? Does the spacer play well together with I-J oil control system?

Many, many thanks in advance!
