I just installed a Toploader in my CSX utilizing the stock bracket and 1 inch spacer. With this setup the engine clutch slave bracket and fork barely touch the frame rails however the trans tail shaft and rear end flange are at much different levels as shown in the attached. The angles look ok but my concern is the draft will hit the safety loop.
I'm not able to lower the back of the engine any further as the
oil pan and clutch will hit the frame.
Set is:
427 FE
Stock cast iron bellhousing
4 speed toploader and stop trans mount.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
