(UPDATE 8/30/19... Several have asked and offered advise for installing the engine and isolators to the Type 2 bracket. I successfully completed the engine installation after consulting several certified engine service manuals on the same engine and Lord J-9613-12 isolators. All were consistent in detailing the sequence and that each AN-7 bolt should be fully torqued before moving to the next. This proved very effective made the installation a non event.)
It WAS a debacle... It's easy to describe the issue now after "going to school" on engine mounting brackets, engine case ears, isolators and isolator bolt lengths. But this whole experience was a huge time suck and slowed my build progress down more than I would have expected.
The following video describes the entire engine mounting situation and explains why it took so long to hang it... Get ready for an education on mounting an engine!
Lord Part# J-9613-12
In the following two pictures I am demonstrating the isolators in the wrong orientation. In the video I describe the correct orientation for these isolators.
