Return on investment isn't a major concern with me, I do this as a hobby/for fun. But I did figure it up at between 10~25K miles.
Anywho, made room for the motor today..
Will have to eventually make a bracket for the ABS pump, but plenty of room now.
Also looks like i"m going to have to move that power steering reservoir after all. Ah well, I'll find a place for it pretty easily. Also got grade 8 hardware for all the points that I'll be mounting to and also for the motor itself.
Gonna start making the brackets soon. Gonna have one coming off the engine block that supports the weight of the motor, and another coming off the power steering pulley (also supported by the intake manifold) that bolts directly to the motor. Anywho, got 2 plans for the belt routing atm:
Belt path 1:
Simpler:
Belt path 2:
More idler pulleys/tensioners, BUT should also give lots of wrap if there is any slip.
