It Should Fit Straight On Your New Motor.. No Need To Buy A New One.

I have built two of these engines so far and I am in the process of a third. If you are using an F-Body oil pan, check #1 rod clearance to the pan with the pan torqued. Rotate the crank and then remove the pan. Check where the dimple is in the pan for any scrape marks. Grind that area if needed. All three of the engines I've worked on have hit. Good luck with the build.
