I reused the original bellhousing mounts and kept the manual transmission in the same location. The 5.7 L31 sits close to the firewall but there is still room for the GM HEI distributor. If your truck was manual trans and you want to set yours up like this, put the bellhousing back in and set your motor mounts and angles.
