Troy54GMC, The bender is from Chuck Smith Motorsports tools in Mooresville NC [704] 660 0707 super nice guy.

Flatbed51, I looked at a couple of trucks I found one that I liked the way the engine sat in it. I measured the distance from the grille to the pulley and then to the firewall. The engine mounts are from Prothane they are the taller 2nd gen Camaro mounts

Ratty 46 I was told many years ago by this old man never mount your shocks no more than 30 degrees. I also read in the book Doorslammer that same thing. Its because the shock isn't efficient past that. It has to do with how it works compression rebound that kinda stuff. The angle of the dangle I will find it and give you the whole story.
