Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB

Thanks Chad, the DM is definitely the reason as it moved the motor up a little and back but I don't know how much cause I didn't measure it before and after. I can tell you that I have about 2" more room to the radiator then I had before. In the picture of the firewall I have the trans jacked so far up that the yoke is hitting the cab floor and the covers are still that close. They are like 5" tall right in the center and that is my problem. The stock ones are only like 2.75" and slope forward at the back. If I could have done this over again I would have been better off going with that one piece firewall that Eric (superflysteiny) has used on a couple of his builds.
