That looks like a good outfit to keep track of, they sure have the engine
mountings for the S-10 under control. But I think on you AD's & TF's you
would want to mount your engine farther aft than the S-10 conversion. On my
'54 the motor mount C/L is on the front wheel C/L this gives you about 1"
Firewall clearance for the HEI also the crank c/l is centered on frame
rails, as the original 235 was.
