I agree with Paul, Honey Nut cornflakes don't have enough fibre to safely support a pinto

looks good

I use to make engine mounts like this but now use tube between two plates as it takes about a third of the time to make and is very light

Stonebridge ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????

pinto?!?!?!

it is a crossflow

there will an identical strut on t'other side then someting in between, still to decide.

could be a strip of steel welded to make I cross section or a length of square tube.

the top and bottom will have plates welded up now my MIG seems to want to play ball.

Apologies for the engine misidentification, it's still early. That will teach me for trying to be funny!

Seems to me the porblm is a little more fundamental.....what in god's good name are those "Honey Nut Flakes".

Quite clearly you should have started with the proper and pre-requisite KELLOGS Crunchy Nut Cornflakes - superior product, superior packaging - don't mess with what you shouldn't...!

I think you should have used a branflakes box as they help you go !!!!

i can also see why they thought it was a pinto... there rocker covers are the same colour blue.....

our brains work in strange ways..... must be the branflakes again
