Be sure to seam weld the box in properly, & seam weld the box itself.

i have spot welded it in first, then seam welded it in on top of that, ground all that back and i am now going to go and seam weld it again, over that last lot of welds and onto new clean metal next to them just for peace of mind.

my engine will be in this week!!!
trying to get it ready for mini showdown!
