'69 Barracuda T56 swap, floor, cross member

mygasser said

is there any wiggle room to drop the motor a bit? that and maybe slot the trans crossmember holes where it bolts to the car could get you where you need to be. it won't need much, if you can get a little on the motor and a little on the trans.......

The TTI headers just barely miss the steering linkage so if the engine is lowered the headers will lay right on the steering linkage. Right now trans and bellhousing are pressed hard on the floor and floor is pushed hard on the floor heat duct. The engine would need to drop at least 1/4" or more which would have the headers laying right on the steering linkage. If I went with custom headers yes lowering the engine would solve the problem.
