Need A Measurement

Hey guys
If anyone has thier cab off the frame I would appreciate if you could let me know the core support position in relation to frame where the cab sits (is it level/up or down). I have a 67 chevelle clip on my frame and it kicks up in the front. I need to modify it to make my front sheet metal fit properly.
Thanks
Kim

Re: Need A Measurement

it looks level to me. i have already cut mine off on the truck for my nova clip, but on my parts truck it looks to level (top of the radiator mounting pad to the frame by the cab mount. the frame looks to curve down, but the mounting points are approximately the same height as the frame by the cab firewall.
