[QUOTE="kmanflyer, post: 1408047, member: 91752"] Interesting thread, especially towards the end when the OP tells his findings as to what he found out in his investigation. When he talks about "the worker tightens the bolt into the engine thru the frame, and the frame shifts to one side." Yikes! It's like framing an off square house. The drywall, flooring, doors, etc. are all tweaked. Result, less than ideal house. I've been that "worker" at many similar jobs and brought such issues to boisterous attention to those that I thought could fix the problems encountered. Sometimes to no avail. It shouldn't happen but unfortunately it does.
