sure. 

Can this heat go away? 


when Matt left at 11 last night it finally cooled down.  i decided to hog on this in the good temperatures to 2am haha.  skid is done just need to bolt back up and mark for an oil drain hole, and full weld the 4 nutserts i put in the bases of your motor mounts.  looking good

Did you do your typical legs up to the motor mount for the skid?

I was going to do that for mine, but the driver's side leg was going to have to do some funky stuff to avoid the exhaust, driveshaft, and upper link/mount
