front drive shaft clearence

Hi i have a 460 in my 78 f150 4x4 with a c6 transmission married transfer case. My question is about clearence of my front drive shaft and the transmission, mainly the transmission pan. It looks like i have about and 1.5 inches between the drive shaft and my transmission pan, is that enough clearence? I am putting L and L brackets on this weekend to replace the old custom custom brackets that the previous owner put on. so i am wondering if i need to position things differently or if the front shaft and pan are gonna be okay. It seems like that is the only place of concern for clearence issues.
thank you
