Tonight I finally got the transmission lift mount welded in place. I had to lift the transmission 2" to get the engine high enough to clear the oil pan. I hope it doesn't cause issues with the front driveshaft angle, but we'll deal with that if it becomes a problem. Next step is to test fit the engine again to see if I have enough clearance. I think so, but it will be close. If the oil pan clears the differential, it will be time to start fabricating the engine mounts.
If anyone has a suggestion on what clutch to run, please talk to me! In order to get a clutch that will handle the torque of this engine, it will have to nearly be a race clutch. That's not ideal for a daily driver, which is what I'm hoping to have with this vehicle. Any ideas?
