that looks good. you're doing it the way it should be done. all i did was lower the trick 3 ". my motor is as low and as far forward as you can get it without hitting the front crossmember. i could have cut the crossmember and dropped the motor down another inch or so but i didn't need to, to shut the hood. i could have used the stock hood, but i wanted the cowl hood. everything fits under the hood ok until you get to the breather, if you look at my pic. in the gallery the breather i used was as high as i could go. some people use breather duct to get the breather over to the side and that helps a little. if you're not gonna use your ac, you could work on the firewall and ac-heater box a little and move the motor back 2" and you could do most anything you wanted to. keep the pic coming.
