[QUOTE="moparmagician, post: 1017309, member: 17598"] Next is test fitting the engine and trans I just got finished rebuilding. Oh boy, is it tight. I kept the front main frame rail width the original chassis had, and I sure wish I had widened it also. It is 20" to the inside of the tubes, not nearly wide enough. Yes the engine fits, but the starter is 1/4" away, I had to really modify the power steering pump brackets, and exhaust is going to be fun to say the least. It's going to work, but next time things will be different. I got the motor mounts made and they look like they will work fine, I am going to add a bit more bracing to them and chain down the engine on the left side so the starter can't hit the frame from torque.
