motor fan

Step 8:  Install motor cooling fan.  For this I chose a very cheap marine bilge blower.  It's loud but will only be turned on when driving.  I cut and bent a down spout from a rain gutter and riveted it onto the motor brush guard.  The bilge blower fits snugly over and is screwed into the down spout.  

compressor

Step 7:  Install compressor.  It will be serviceable from underneath, in case other components block access from top.

Adapter, mounting and compressor system engineered by Rebirth Auto in Florida.  They'd done one before.  Great fit!

motor is in

Most folks connect the transmission to the motor while it is out of the car.  Clearly this was what the ring mounting system was designed for.  I didn't want to mess with shift linkage so I left the transmission in the car.  This might be doing it the hard way but it wasn't that hard.  I removed the bottom half of the motor mount ring and installed it to put the motor on top of.  The rig required some wrestling to mate up.  I borrowed the hoist from a friend.

ready to go in

Here is the motor assembled with the adapter.  The ring around the middle will bolt to the old motor mount locations.

motor adapter

Step 6:  Install motor.  Here is the motor to transmission adapter.  There are tapped holes in the flange of a bearing.   The holes line up with the flywheel.  The bearing is pressed in to an aluminum spacer.  

The motor will bolt to this side and the shaft will engage the bearing with a key.

 I attached the flywheel,

and the clutch.
