<VV> Transmission to cross support

[NicolCS@aol.com]

What Barry said is true, generally you start with the transmission end in the 
bracket loosely, then do the lower control arms while the engine is at an 
angle, then bring up the rear.  The trans has to be in the pocket of the bracket. 
 It's very hard to get there if the rear is already up in place.  Also, be 
aware that you will need a very thick washer (1/4" or better) on the larger 
diameter bolt to fill the gap between the bracket and the trans.

Hi all...I am soooo close to getting my Vair back on all 
fours.  '65 Corsa vert 140/4.  Several tasks still ahead, but 
one big question.  This is my first engine reinstall...and I 
am having a very hard time getting the three transmission to 
cross member bolts back in. <unsnip>
