The instructions show the engine block glued in first, before the engine hook is set in the slot. This might imply the engine block is glued flush with the end of the motor mount tube.
GOTCHA: With the engine block glued farther down, against the upper bend of the engine hook, it is actually recessed about 3/16" from the top edge of the motor mount tube.
TIP: Slide a centering ring onto position on the engine mount tube (no glue) and trace a pencil line all the way around the tube for easier positioning after glue is applied.
TIP: It's not mentioned, but a notch will help with the ring fit over the engine hook.
Here's the finished mount with the white plastic ring glued on the low end. The inside notch centers over the engine hook.
