will do. what's the approxament usable length space in a stock model A engine compartment, stock flat firewall? figure I could help him out, I don't think he's ever had the body on the frame, and can not obtain this measurement, but also I figure I could measure my 235 and figure out what kind of resess is nessasary. My '51 Chevy has like a 5" resess, and it's got about 1" of clearence to the firewall.
