Fuel regulator mounting
Made up some posts to mount the regulator on, the idea being to allow easy engine removal with AN fittings. Dynamat on firewall between ribs with OE spec card in front, trying to maximise space. 
Hard fuel line install
Had to make up a bulkhead fitting to allow union to fit secure. Rolled up some thin sheet to make a tube and welded the same to a washer for welding to firewall.

Crank Gear install
Fortunately had time to also install remaining bearings and check end play with current three shims selection that I had available coming out at .0035. Now have a fully built up crank as I also managed to get the crank gears installed and woodruff keys in as well.
