Here's the motor mount bolted up in pieces and then finally bolted to the block. They bolted up beautifully and only needed a small amount of grinding on one corner of the Ford MM to clear the AC compressor bracket. The oil dip stick tube is going to have to be rebent to go around the bracket OR what I'm probably going to end up doing is running one of the flexible braided hose sticks from Lokar.... same thing I'm going to run for the tranny, not because I need to but because i think they look badass.
Here it is set in place. The headers clear the steering barely but you can see how much room I have to play with between the valve covers and the firewall. Also, because it's sits so low, there will be ZERO trimming of the firewall to clear the tranny. Going to use the stock "low" tranny cover in the cab too. Once I build the new brackets to move the whole assembly back 2.5", they header/steering clearance will be MUCH more manageable.

Anyone know where I can find this steering setup?
