My Elio Alternate Project Is Underway.

Not a great picture, but the rear engine mount is done and bolted to the firewall, as well as the exhaust manifold back on.

I assume you are going to put the catalytic converter further down the exhaust system??

Has to have one.

stainless?

No.

Will the exhaust come in CHROME???

Maybe for you, but I use Mozilla Firefox.

Designed, lasered, folded and fitted the lower radiator mount today, and looking what I have to do to also mount the air con condenser.

Of course for the 2nd step, I also have to design and fabricate the upper radiator/condenser mount as well.

Mark, I somehow lost track of you after "COVID" and am trying to find out where you are on the Mongrel and if you have a new site link. I have asked around and no one seems to know.

I only cater to here, ElioOwners, and a Facebook group.

Both have the same basic posts at the same time, so what you see here is where I am at, nothing hidden.

I have no website.

I'm fiddling with lots of little things, aiming to getting it up and drive'able soon.

For example, today I got new fuel lines and filter for the fuel tank, and mounted the steering column.

do you plan to use and in-tank fuel filter or an inline one between the tank and motor ..

Since the Harley shown in the picture was stolen, I have had to resort to my Plan B. Sorry if this is in the wrong place.

The black thing with the writing on it in the picture above is a typical inline filter.

delighted to hear it .... inline filters are usually much easier for me to replace

That looks very similar to the in-line filter on my GM work truck. One end threads in and the other end you squeeze the two little white tabs and it pops off.
It appears you are making everything on the Mongrel -- DIY friendly. Thank you!!
