Placed a mock engine & trany between the new frame rails.

Just to find out that the stock type motor mounts and the high doller canton oil pan is not going to work. Going to have to use motor plates instead of the stock motor mounts. I could slide the motor forward a little, but I still don't think it would be enough to clear the new cross member for the mustang two front end. I could move the cross member back some but the rack still has to go on the front of that. So I guess I'll be buying a new oil pan now.
I actually bought this pan for a 73 mavrick years ago and never used it.
But this is one nice pan, dang it all. Well now I'm at a stand still, till I figure
out what to do next. Kurt

Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
