    Jim, on a Pete & Jake's '32 chassis, Show-Me roadster body - tape measure taped to top center of the rear drum I got 75" to the front edge of the firewall, and 91" to the center of the SBC motor mount. I can check again in a couple of hours when my grandson gets here to hang out, but those are real close from my "project".

    With a "holder" and a straight edge I'd put the firewall at 75.25", and the motor mount more like 91.25". That's with a wood block square against the tube for the motor mount bolt, projected out a foot, measured straight back to the axle tube center to the center of the motor mount.

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
