Does yours? How did you address this issue?

Like the rear hangers and fuel tank, wish I would of went that route.

I made mounts, I made them so the exhaust is centered. I think its still offset some, just make sure the engine and transmission is parallel to the rear end. You want the engine and tranny offset the same.

Watch out, the steering box gets close to the power steering pump. Thats why I raised mine up so high...
