so my lower control arms are nowhere ner level with the full weight of the engine and trans. I tried to attach photos but it wouldnt let me upload them. it seems waaaay off to me...they are even bowed out a little. I need to call cpp and see what they say. I ordered some original style short valve covers to see where I am going to need to modify the firewall. not a lot from the looks of it. may even be able to shave down the bellhousing mounts to drop the rear a little. id rather not cut on the firewall if I can help it.
