Re: 49/51 3100, 4bt Turbo, ZF-5, Classic

Have some more pics of fabbing up the mounts that I'll get up here later. Currently, I have the engine sitting pretty well right in front of the firewall mark, at a 5 deg angle, and have the oil pan at the same height as the front suspension crossmember. So shouldn't be dragging the oil pan around.

Next Monday, local driveshaft guy is coming by to measure/make me a slip-shaft driveshaft...

The clearance with the rear driveshaft hoop is a bit tight, the engine is as low in the frame as it can go, don't wanna much more than 5deg and will have just a few inches to spare where the driveshaft fits thru to the rear end... will see how driveshaft measures out.... concerned I may need a 2-piece driveshaft.
