I'm doing an LQ9/L60E in a '67. Cab is not on the frame. I'm in the midst of boxing the frame and doing my pre-powdercoat mockup. I have a core LS and L60 combos sitting on the mounts to get my No Limit X Brace located before welding it in. Are there any issues with lateral placement of the engine in regard to the radiator or firewall? Or simply put should I place the combo to the front or rear on the adjustable mounts? I really don't want to have to put the cab on before I get this thing ready for coating if I don't have to.

Thanks,
Randy
