Well, I dropped my engine in the car. Seriously. It could have literally dropped in--the Doug's headers fit that well! Nice and tightly tucked underneath with great ground clearance!
I am pleased to see that everything else worked well too.
A/C fit. Power steering fit. firewall, starter, oil filter. Everything. Looks almost factory.
Now my biggest ground clearance problem is my 8 qt. oil pan. Not the thing that one would want to be the litmus test for ground clearance, but hey, whaddaya gonna do?
As soon as I know how to download pics they will be on this site.
Thank again for everyone's help!
