Sorry its been so long since I've posted up here. I have made some good progress and am in the final stages of re-assembling the car for good this time.

I am also making and selling frames and aluminum bodies / Body panels if anyone is interested.

You can see a very basic website of mine (under construction) at

http://www.sterantino.com

Nothing (for the Alfa drivetrain I am using). There is a motor mount crossmember already in place, and the backend of the transmission mounts to the forward split-tube crossmember. If I were to use a Bugatti drivetrain, I would have to modify the split tube cross-members for the gearbox.

Heres a pic with the Alfa in it. Fits really well and the oil pan fins stick through the belly pan which looks great.
