These kinda problems are what I love to get tangled up in when I am fabin' a streetrod..




Nice to see they cut your meds some more . By playing with where the engine went no frame cutting was necessary. With the engine set at the height I have it, the manifolds I'm running (which are slightly bigger than the other guys) sit above the frame and are angled in enough to run 2 1/2 head pipes. I think I could even get the shorty headers they sell for these engines in there if I want. It took about 2 days of test fitting to find the 1 place where I liked the engine.

The real challenge was to build a nice looking motor mount for the drivers side that allowed clearance for the steering. Again a lot more time just looking and holding pieces of metal up to it than actually "working".
