Hey everyone!

I haven't posted here in quite a while, but I had a quick question.

I'm just about ready to drop my Cobra engine in between the fenders, and I was curious if anyone's installed the SW long tubes outside the vehicle, and if the DOHC with long tubes will fit between the frame rails dropping it in.

I don't want to hang them and lock them down with the Stage 8's, only to find out it doesn't fit from the top. Thanks in advance!

Yes an engine leveler helps. Also taking the shift cable bracket off the driver frame rail helps too.

Thank you so much for the responses! I don't need to worry about the shifter cable bracket, as the T56 is next.
