Began process of mounting engine to determine firewall location of other items by using engine hoist to lift engine off of table and onto airframe. Placed ACV-J01-10 engine shock mounts onto engine mount then maneuvered engine onto airframe. Used bolt guides that came with engine to secure engine to airframe. Measurements for the AN4-51 bolts for engine mount did not account for rubber compression and required approximately 7 washers each to prevent nut from bottoming out; will replace with proper sized bolts in future. Started by mounting engine without spacers; will measure prop hub location later on to see if spacers on bottom mounts will be needed.
