Re: Project: Over My Head
Spent a fair ammount of the afternoon measuring, eyeballing, shoving & considering engine placement.
With the CPP kit, which I wouldn't buy again or recomend to anyone, you want the engine crossmember caps flipped horizontally lengthwise with the leading edge 26.25" back from the frame rail. Lift as high as it will go & voila - it's all in place.
Of course, this puts your truck pan's sump 3.25" above the tie rod, and thats before the engine is resting on the suspension, but I have a plan for that...
