Default 89 yj om617 swap

So I have been reading a lot of posts on here to assist me in my diesel swap and I thank everyone for putting your build threads on here. The absolute worst thing for me was fabricating the mounts. I am currently in the process of making one better but I am happy to say it runs well.

I did however notice that the engine seems to vibrate the jeep noticembly more than the inline 6 but I'm hoping the second mount design I use solves some of this.

I also can hear a slight exhaust leak coming from the manifold... How easy it could have been to change before the engine went in... O well.

I rebuild the turbo before and am happy with it although I need a boost guage to ensure its working as it should.
