Is the AOD going to clear your floor board or do you have to modify the floor to clear the AOD?

AOD

No, I'll have to modify the floor to fit the AOD. This was my doing. In retrospect I could have slid the engine forward more and made the modification less. Regardless shouldn't be too bad.

I think he was looking at the 2nd to last photo where the gap was not welded and missed the last photo that showed it welded.

Do you have photos showing what engine you mounted and how you mounted it?

Thanks TZ, would love to see the video when you have it done. Are you going to You Tube it? Do I see a modified stock front axel used for a modified cross member back there?
