I took some prelimnary measurements and it looks like it's going to be pretty easy and straighforward leaving the buick engine mounts where they are and building off of those. The crankshaft centerline looks like it may be raised as much as 1" from stock just to get the pan and everything to clear. The question now is will the tunnel allow for 1" of vertical movement. I guess I'll find out shortly.
I did relocate my perches on my frame to adjust for the headers and my existing tranny.
