This is a refit from an existing set up, so very limited latitude, and frankly no need for this consideration, as 30,000 kms travel has proved the alignment is ok.

It is just a small wiggle in fit up needed, ala about 10mm extra clearance to the drivers side, that is the RHS of the car for us in Oz.

In fact I'm just trying to get the engine back to the location it was originally set up in anyway, for more clearance around the header flange that is rubbing on the PS against the chassis.

Can take a photo, if a more major strip down and refit this weekend doesn't achieve the expected result. But if you google Mckay part A1140 for a ford fairlane, you'll see they have a slotted chassis bolt location.

I might have to open up this slot to force the engine further away from the chassis, but think this effect will only achieve a limited change in location.
