it doesnt line up

[etriebe]

Rebuilt my engine and installed it with rockford racecrafts poly mounts and frame pads. I installed the engine first without the spacers from the the mount package and the engine went in fine this time, no problems now until i went to turn the steering wheel and the shaft hits my headers. I called it day and went back out this morning and installed the spacers and the shaft still hits my headers, I said f*** it for now and moved on to put my crossover on and the pass side hits the frame. last time i installed the engine I did not have any of these problems. If I pull the motor all the way up with my cherry picker with the through bolts in the mounts the shaft doesn't hit the headers anymore and i think i can get the crossover to bolt on. Is it ok to tighten the through bolts so it stays up or is there another way i can sit the motor down all the way?

Re: it doesnt line up

just move your steering shaft over. thats what im doing. got it loosend up last night, took about 5 minutes to get out. now all that needs to be done is slot the holes on the columns sleeve where the bolts go through to the firewall and be done with it. wish i would have done this before i pulled and installed the engine 2 times to try and adjust the frame pads. let me know if you need instructions.
