Hi Josh, yep, bolted everything up and under the springs then noticed something looked wrong.... lol..... worst part was i had just dumped in the second jug of axle oil... had to drain it out then proceed to take the backing plate off and fix the screw up.
Hi BowlEEach, I only know of 1 other V8 truck (injected stang 5.0l) and it was in mission a couple years back. no idea if the guy still has it or has destroyed it as of yet. only seen him once. I never hear of many builds here either. What is in your truck? and what year is your build?
Many years ago i was able to get a 302 and C6 from a ranger conversion from Pick-a-Part car wreckers, that build had the proper mating plates for the motor mounts, I used those on placing the motor into the frame, with the original 2.8 motor mounts. went together like clock work. sold that motor a long time back, but kept the C6 for a future build. (small bell housing) is a bonus!
cheers
