Afterwards the engine was at a 0.5 degree tilt and I gained about 3/4" ground clearance on the passenger side header. Car was up pretty high on wheel cribs in the front and jack stands under the back. And I couldn't use my engine hoist due to the car's positioning in the garage. So I very carefully used a floor jack and a block of wood on that side of the engine. It was tight but it worked. See pictures in other thread. Purchased engine mount and shim from AMES.

Thanks Graygator!!! I have plenty of room as I have regular exhaust manifolds.

I will give it a try. Thanks again and GO GATORS!
