Re: Working on it

OK, Its been a while since I have posted any progress. I am trying to mock up the motor and I am having an issue with the mounts. the PO swapped out the torsion bar front X member for a 63 X member and relocated it forward to center the wheel in the wheel well. I got a set of mounts from POL for a 63-72 and I knew I would have to alter them to make them work. the problem I am having is the motor seems to be about 2+" high and forward. I have a set stock perches but it looks like they might not solve my problem. You can see from the first photo how high the motor sits. I Knew I would have to add a spacer to the top of the frame but I thought the side of the frame would be tight against the mounts. Has any one experienced this issue? Any help would be appreciated.
