Just doing the final eye inspection with a 340 dummy block..
Look like it clear ATI powerglide clear perfect at the firewall and tunnel.....


Btw: sombody asked me in the past about the crank centerline on my 65 valiant sb, i know this is not the right way to do it, but its just a rought measure to give an idea, iam sure is lower then 13 inches...

Stick a dist in it... its gonna be close to the fire
wall... and it'll be lower than the 13" when you
have all the weight on it

When I built the Rampage I did the same thing... when
I measured the dist to the fire wall it cleared but
I forgot the material thickness.. it was .062 alum
so I had to put a small radius in the alum, .062 deep
