Also, if the motor is moved, what does that do to core support and fan shroud tolerances?
I think you will be "pioneering" the two-piece drive-shaft and Dropmember combo. I am assuming the front shaft will need to be lengthened, and the carrier may need to be shimmed???... I don't know which trailing arm crossmember you're running.

The core support does not need to be moved (I am unsure why moving the 'radiator placement' was referenced in the Classic Truck's article... The radiator and core support are un-touched and un-altered. The shroud may need to be modified... I know a stock shroud will have interefrence issues with the fan after the install.
