hubcap, the engine placement right now is pretty much perfect; right up against the firewall with small clearance. I would have liked to be able to move the engine further back because that would have eliminated the pan and pickup mods, but I didn't want to hack up the firewall, and go too radical. I am still using the z4 engine mount arms, that were sectioned and moved 1", with gussetts added since the existing gussets no longer lined up. Any fabbed mount would have to be aluminum, and that brings difficulty in that it would have some very thick sections welded to thinner ones, which gets tricky. Maybe I'll try it one day, but it doesn't offer much benefit. I'm using the green e28 engine mounts.
Hovering, I will check placement with a front pan this weekend. Not sure the lift would even work in this crazy Chicago weather currently.
Getting close to finishing the mk60 ABS retrofit, and then a better air intake. Garry should have the CAN converter configured soon, and I'll give an update on how that all turns out.
