Re: [T3] SCORE!!!!!!

Hi everyone,
    I too, am planning on installing a 2L Type 4 in my '69 Square which has
a '71 chasis & tranny.
    My only question is:
        Do I need to make a rear engine hanger to fit a Square body & a Type 4
engine? Or will the Type 4 engine fit the Type 3 engine hanger?
    I would think (personal opinion) that with the Type 4, being heavier
and having more horse power & torque, that a stronger rear hanger would
be a good idea.

    Any input on this??

Cliff
