Hemi in my '32 needs firewall moved back! :(
Yep, I put my mock up 392 hemi motor in my '32 tonight & was all excited at first. The steering cleared! But then upon measuring for the front blower pulley clearance I see that the pully hits the crossmember. So the motor will have to go back 2 1/4"! And then, of course, the steering hits! But so be it, I'll just have to deal with whatever comes my way! So motor back & steering re-routed a bit.... Bill
You're welcome Mike, glad it worked out for you. Roger, it's taken a few years but my inventory of excess parts has shrunk a fair bit from 1 1/2 garage stalls to about an eight by eight space. ...
