It doesn't seem very intensive, but I have been gathering info on and off for a few years and full time for over two months. I will likely have to fabricate a few parts, but it is nothing major. I will be adding a strut bar and front dogbones to keep the motor from tearing up the mounts or crashing into the firewall or radiator.

There is a lot of torque there and it needs to be tamed. There is no cradle under the motor/tranny. The only mounts are on either side and a small dogbone on the lower right. I will be adding some extra support to remedy the issue.
