And that rear hole on the top... I would use it to bolt it to the floor(with spacers if needed to center it... I dont like the back out there floating in space if the shaft come off)

Per NHRA ......... must be located within 6 " of front U joint. I used the old school 26.00 safety loop.......bolted through the floor and with a little heat and beat , it is a very snug fit. Now that I am switching to a 904 , I may have to move mine , but then , I could also shove the motor back a bit since I am switching to motor plates too.

At least you put one in there. That is something that would cause a lot of newbies trouble at the tech stand. Back when we had tech stands. Now days at a lot of tracks, if you have the $ for the entry fee, you pass tech. Glad to see you care enough to do it right. Brian Dunnigan
