Well have a look at my motor compared to a stock one and let me know what I screwed up:

Stock:

Mine:

 

[jk69cat]

motor mount plates are on upside down

 

[x182dan]

if you had to guess how much you think my motor is up compared to how it should be?

 

[jk69cat]

inch 2 inch?

And if you kept them on the correct side, the engine would have to be moved back a fair bit too. Can't tell from the pic.

well the upper intake manifold wouldn't fit on because it was hitting the wiper cowl lol

 

[jk69cat]

thats nothing to do with the engine mounts i have that issue too

 

[x182dan]

this is how it was with them upside down lol

 

[tbirdbrain]

what intake is that?

 

[x182dan]

what intake is that?

its just the black powercoated version of the trickflow intake manifold

 

[tbirdbrain]

obviously there isnt a huge amount of space but it can fit. Are you using a upper/lower spacer?

Going for wireless ignition I see?

I will DIS it one of these days! It will be the only one of these with coil overs before im done thanks.:tongue:

Back to the matter at hand (remember that was a hood issue posted some time ago) I obviously have the stock hood on there but I did have to shim the brackets 3/4" to allow the hood to close lessening the likelihood of developing unintentional hood speed bumps. I hate it but it works for now.

You know what sucks? Our "slab of bacon" intake that hides all of your other pretty powdercoating work. You should ditch that and get the BBK intake so you can see more of that purdy engine bay.

Well.. while this is up here, where can I find a upper/lower spacer? I am in need of one.

 

[x182dan]

summit racing

 

[drummerzrok24]

Got a p/n handy? I can't seem to find it.

 

[drummerzrok24]

nevermind, I found them.

For some reason, I cannot get my 5.0L upper to fit on the 351W truck lower, it's like the fuel rails are in the way or something. Any ideal?
