So I got tired of trying to reach that last header bolt and the lack of room for my H.E.I. on my small block. So after just looking at the beast for an hour, I came up with moving the engine cradle forward. Out came the engine I just put in and I pulled all the bolts out to the cradle and moved it forward a couple inches. No problem so far and this may not work on 2wd. I have to put new drive shafts in anyway because of the 700r4 and crawl box setup. I also had to move the stock shifter linkage. So far quite happy with results. And there is a bunch of room to work near the rear of the engine. I have a serpentine belt system from a 92 engine and electric fans so that was not an issue. Just got the mounts for my 4core radiator built so I can put the new core support in soon and see if all this work is going to fit.
