Greg:
All I can say about those two bolts is that any meaningful relationship should be very, very short with the least amount of conflict!
! Glad to hear you guys got that engine out, working on the ground is no fun (way too many push-ups). I guess the side with the problem engine mount was pretty bad preventing unbolting the mount from the engine - must have been fun cutting that aluminum (this from one who's seen that horror movie a time or two or three!
!). Is this the engine you're going to power your welding rig with? Don't feel bad about about being extension "deficient" (actually "challenged" is the PC term) I could probably get 2 1/2 feet using all of my 3/8 and 1/2 extensions connected with an adapter!

My, as usual, very cheap $0.02 worth!
