I hear ya, packaging always ends up making things like this a compromise. The crank center-line on my Cummins is ridiculously tall, my floor-pan will most likely have to be channeled from the huge hole I'll need for the trans all the way to back, even after taking 2" out of the oil pan.

4x3 makes for a nice, easy weld joint along the top of the tube.
