Tom, try hanging the transmissions from the gantry to get your rear mounts set. The angle is what it is and much lighter to work with. I then found line drawing for my engines and made up a sheet of plywood to get me close. Eventually you do need to hang both to get it just right. I couldn't use the stock cummins mounts they just wouldn't put the engine where "I" wanted it. Remember to work the engine mounts near your water pumps so you can change pump without jacking up motor. Took a little caressing with angle grinder to get the clearance you need. BH

FYI plywood 2x4s and cedar shingles your best friend when mocking up ramps. BH

Try sending Bob Lilco a PM, I believe at one time he had a jig. He is only on Long Island. Not a long drive.
