Put the engine in and bolted it to the transmission, next thing to do is fabricate engine mounts and cut a notch in the oil pan to clear the front differental and weld in some new steel.

Test fit the adapter,bell housing and starter. I had to grind down the adapter plate so the hard coolant pipe would clear (coolant pipe not in pic). In the pic you can see the bell housing sticking up above the plate, I had to grind that down also.

Test fit the Toyota R150 transmission bell housing, Acme adapters adapter plate and IMI performance hi torque clock-able starter. everything looks OK, once the engine is clean I will test fit to the engine.

cleaned the engine bay up a little, getting closer to bolting the engine in, then I can start fabricating engine mounts.
