I finished the install last night using Garn's idea of the 1" black iron pipes. I have to say installing a 1000 engine that weighs in excess of 200 pounds is not an easy task. I had the assistance of my next door neighbor which was a tremendous help. The engine was all together. I wrapped the frame with pipe insulation to prevent scratcheing the paint. I found this to be the hardest part of the build so far. Thanks Garn for your insite and great idea. :cheer:

if you are repainting your frame if found the easiest way to reassemble is to lay motor on its side on top of a rug and lay the bare frame over top and bolt motor back in then assemble everything else;)
