what do you have in it? i am replacing the 454 with a 4bolt 454 with all the goodies. should be fun. keep running into snags though. iam waiting on a Miloden Marine pan, when i put the new engine in i was hitting the oil pan on the intake of the Berkeley jet. when i put the old Hardin exaust manifolds i am hitting the new after market head bolts. i am hoping to have it ready by the middle of May?

if you "just" raised the motor, what did you do about the short drive shaft? do you know how deep your pan is? i ordered a Canton Marine 8' oil pan for it. the stock pan was 9" deep. i am hoping NOT to have to order the Milodon 7 1/2" oil pan.
