"I've got a 165 L6 and the wood supports for the front engine mount are rotted. I've pulled the motor and I'm replacing the wood with pressure treated lumber. I'm also planning on covering everything with fiberglass and My brother-in-law is making me a new steel support structure for the front mount to sit on since the old one was all rusted. Whilst I've got the motor out, is there anything else I should look for to fix.
