All parts are from either the T/A or the GTO, except I made two 4"x8" brackets. You see one in the picture. Its a 1/8" steel plate with holes drilled in it.
The earlier 3rd gen motors don't work. The years that will work are (I think) 87-92 Firebirds and the Fieros. If you go scavenging the T/A, you'll need a LH and a RH motor, their mounting bolts and folded clip nuts, the control box and its mounting bracket. It's mounted on the firewall just left of center.
The real invention was in figuring out how and where to mount the motors. I spent most of a Saturday just deciding on location and orientation.
Couple of other tricks that I did to get it to be solid and dependable.
