Here are some pics of the engine mounts for the 4bta into the beast. Click on the small picture to see a much larger shot.
This mounts are fabricated out of 1/2 inch thick hot rolled steel. The actual vibration isolator are the ones used with the cummins 4bta in Grumman step vans.
The frame that it is show in here.. is actually the frame from a 1977 ford F-250 4 wheel drive high boy.
These are a bit wider angle shots showing the cummins 4bta sitting in place in the truck.few of the accessories are hooked up yet. Nice engine fit. Plenty of room.
Above are a few pictures of the way I installed the Hydroboost master cylinder from out of the step van.. I made a plate with a large center hole in it to accept the threaded snout of the master cylinder and then 4 holes in a pattern surrounding that, that matched the 4 bolt pattern used by the old vacuum booster. Then I made 4 "stand offs" from 1" steel rod that are drilled and tapped into both ends. Bolts go through the firewall from the inside of the vehicle to fasten the standoffs to the firewall, and then bolts are used to secure the master cylinder mounting plate to the standoffs. worked out slick. Attached to the firewall on either side of the standoffs, can be seen a couple of vertical sections of angle iron that I welded in long ago, to stiffen the firewall to support the old master cylinder.
This shows the mounting I made to snout drive a hydraulic pump for use as a power steering pump. I used the stock saginaw pump on the cummins just to drive the brake hydraulic assist unit. This pump shown here will supply hydrualic pressure for the saginaw steering box, that will be tapped to also provide pressure to an auxilliary assist cylinder. This pump is non directional so mounting it to face the engine was no problem, just get the inlet and outlet ports right. Since I am using a 4bt for an engine and an electric fan, there is enough room in front of the cummins fan pulley to allow me to fit the pump in there and still clear the fan blades easily. (the electric fan, radiator and aftercooler are not installed yet)
And here are a couple shots of the mounting I made for the York style piston air conditioner pump, that I will use as an air compressor. It is drive off a single V belt by an auxilliary pulley I mounted to the engine snout.
