finally got the motor and trans mocked up in the 52 1ton
i measured and measured but seems like i somehow screwed up the mounts. looks like the motor can go still go back maybe 3/4 of a inch. gonna throw the core support, radiator, water pump and fan in before i go any further as i want to run a mechanical fan. but at the same time if i move the motor back anymore i may have to cut into the cab a bit. we shall see
