Can't really tell what it is rubbing on, I "precut" the vc spacer/rubber thing thinking it may or may not clear, it looks like it is something under that though, like the boss on the head for the vc bolt. I'll pull the shaft out and see where the paint is (ohh, I painted my steering shaft) on the head and go from there. I'd rather not space the motor up, it looks like clearance would be worse, but tilting it up on the passenger side may buy enough to get by provided the motor doesn't move around too much. I have the mighty mite insulators, wonder if I need a torque strap too.
