here are some pictures of my problems....
passenger side bolts in just fine. Nothing hitting like before. But as you can see you cannot bolt the factory A/C pump in the factory location with the mounts like this. What do you guys do for air?
general picture of the project.
Picture of the driver side mount not lining up. the hole for the mount is off by about an inch or half an inch. I believe this mount that I have is an older 350 mount out of a C10 though. They look the same as the other side which is the part number that the thread at the top of this forum suggested. I would assume that this might be my problem as its not bolting in correctly.
problem number three.....my truck is body dropped on air suspension thus the frame needs to be the lowest point of the truck. The oil pan hanges about two inches lower than the crossmember. Is there a different oil paint that I can use to fix this issue or will I need to section this pan and the oil sump setup?
side pic to show the closeness to the fire wall. I lowered the cab down and it clears by just an inch or two but I am assuming this is normal.
another general shot from the driver side rear.
pic of the oil pan from the back of the truck.
I have ordered these brackets (from the part number that was given in the sticky at the top of this forum about the swap) from the dealership and they got me one in that was correct and then they kept ordering the second one and it kept coming in as an o ring or gasket...something is not right with their system for ordering or something. Anyways I am getting frustrated with them so I asked a buddy if he had a mount that would work and he gave me the one that is not lining up. they look the same with the naked eye but I have not tried to measure them yet. But I could use some help.
I could use any insight in these three issues.
