Not as fast as I want. Working a ton of overtime at work, so that's been me keeping away from the project.

Re: Project Roxy
Got the engine mounted to the frame, but I'm having issues with the oil pan hitting the rack and pinion, even with the trans tail at 6 degrees. Nate built me truss tabs with engine mount points 1/4" higher than normal and this didn't resolve the problem.

Nate is going to call me tonight to try and help resolve it. But, I was curious if anyone else has run into this problem?

I did, but it was an LS motor. Had to go with .5" truss tabs and 1" mounts.

I spoke with Nate last night and he's going to make me another set of truss tabs with the engine mount point 1/2" higher than the originals.

That should work. He already has the template, since he did it on mine
