Nov 01, 2021     Standby alternator conversion prep; Exhaust support arms - (3.5 hours)       Category: Firewall Forward
1. Inventoried and studied on preparation for converting the standby alternator. I will be installing and extended shear coupling, replacing the existing engine studs, and a couple of other tasks, and I wanted to make sure I understood the process. The instructions that came with the spacer kit are essentially non-existent.

2. Moved the exhaust support arms to a different section of the engine mount, in order to give it the proper angle. (These arms should be angled mostly fore-aft.) I had to trim 3" off the arms to do this -- 1" off the forward piece, and 2" off the aft piece.)
