Wow, half ton! I checked out your pics and those mounts really do leave the engine pretty high! I was going to go with those, but now I'm not quite so sure. I think I'd rather have it sitting lower. I'll have to give that some thought. Also, you said your engine and serpentine belt brackets came from an '89 Crown Vic. I'm going with a 351W, but I planned on using the serpentine brackets from an'84 Crown Vic that donated it's AOD for this project. You said you didn't have enough roon for a fan, but plenty of firewall clearance. Could you have moved the engine back farther to get enough room for a fan? I personally prefer a mechanical fan and may use another bracket system for my accessories if this won't let me do that.
