T56 into a Foxbody
I have searched and no one has had same issues so here goes... Has anyone put a T56 into a foxbody? I had to modify Team Z motor mounts to move the engine back about 1/4" so the Moroso Fbody pan would clear the TZ K member. Now the passenger side head is about 1/4" from the firewall which is fine I guess but the engine still seems to be sitting about 1/2" too high. I bolted the QuickTime bell on and it looks to be too high in the tunnel. Any thoughts?

This has become a huge pain in the ***! The engine is definitely sitting too high even after modifying the mounts and moving the engine back 1/4" and dropping it 1/4". Now the pan clears the K but the transmission is about 1/2" from lining up even after beating the living **** out of the tunnel. I also cut 3 unused ears off the trans that were interfering. I have modified the Team Z mounts and they are ugly as **** so when I get the motor where I want it my buddy is going to duplicate what I have, except it will look better. Had considered putting 3/8" spacer btwn K and frame but don't want to loose ground clearance.
I'm sorry but this Team Z motor mounts are way off from putting the engine where it needs to be. The engine is definitely sitting too high.
