I'm not so sure that's the way to go. I have always believed that the body will flex differently when on the ground with suspension then with mounting it on the rotissere. Some believe, although I may not, that it should be on the gound with even the full weight of a motor and trans in there.
I've seen projects that have intalled jigs temp welded before they put it in the air.
