Notes: Engine Location:
1. Left to right:
Prototype vehicle had engine centered between frame rails. Measure from centerline of
lower bolt hole for original front motor mounts in block to outside of frame rails is
11" on left and 11" on right
2. Vertical:
Steering box rearward bolt (on outside frame) to ground is 12-1/4"
Front motor mount (lower bolt hole) to level ground should be 16" (our prototype was
15-1/2")
From distributor boss on intake manifold to cowl should be 12-5/8" (prototype was
13")
3. Front to rear:
Firewall to rear of valve covers:
Left outside corner (driver's side) is 3/8"
Left inside corner is 3/4"
Right outside corner is 1-3/16"
4. Engine Angle:
With truck level (at bedrail and doorsill) engine is tilted down to rear 5 degrees (taken
on valve cover)
Steering shaft:
1. remove steering shaft to
get headers on and off
Steering stop:
(prototype vehicle had centerline wheels with
6.00 x 15L tires) (measured for 3-1/2" diameter collector and extension)
1. add 1/2" to steering stop for the right side to prevent tire hitting collector.
2. add 3/8" to steering stop for left side to prevent tire hitting collector.
Brake lines:
1.
reposition brake
proportioning valve assembly and bracket.
2. reroute brake lines from master cylinder.
3. reroute emergency brake cable.
Speedometer cable:
1. may have to be rerouted
(prototype vehicle did not have one)
Heater/AC:
1. heater/AC must be
removed. |
