Any suggestions or advice on installing this combo? I bought a tubular crossmember from CPP. Anyone installed one of these?

I plan on welding it in after its bolted to the frame. I know about the pinion/tranny output shaft angle (3 degree or so) and most of the mounting issues but if anyone has any experiences or suggestions they would like to share please feel free.

Also, there is a crossmember immediately behind the front crossmember (engine mount?) that looks like its going to be in the way of the pan (front sump) It has bolts in the front of it and rivets in the back. Will removing this crossmember be an issue if I install this tubular mount? I personally think it'll be plenty strong.

Thanks,

Tyson

 

Tyson, There are some rear sump pans for the 351. I know of the Crown Victoria application in the early 80's.
