    I know this is kinda old but next time you could always use a billet adjustable motor mount plate, typically used on mini bikes, for the motor placement. They are a little pricey but worth every penny!

      @@crabtreemedia8169 how'd it go with the welding? My uncle let me borrow a Chicago Electric Flux 125 and an Arksen 100 amp (yeah right 🙄) AC stick welder. Honestly I'm digging the stick program even though I can only push 3/32 6013. 6011 blows through no matter what I do. I'm personally going to upgrade to a 110/220 Amico Pro 200 DC 100-250 volt unit so I can use 1/8 7018 and get more accurate welds.
