phil, what do you think you are putting this motor into? there is little/no space to move a motor with a rear mounted distributor back in a 3rd gen. even if there was, you are talking about having to cover a distance of prolly 3 or 4 inches, that is a lot of land to cover in any car.

yeah, you're also talking to a kid who put an 11 liter diesel in a chevy silverado. Nothing is impossible.

Silly Tim, tricks are for kids!

[NJSPEEDER]

it isn't impossible, but he would be adding two tons of work and a bunch of safety equipoment to teh car. to move teh motor back you would have to cuyt the fire wall and modify it extensively. teh second he cuts teh firewall the car will be required to have a roll bar, 5pt harnesses, and a fire jacket according to nhra rules.
basically teh easy and safer way to do things is to put an hour into ordering a driveshaft instead of two weeks into modding teh car and shopping for safety equipment.

That was WAY more complicated than just paying the $20 for the correct length tail shaft extension .
Liz, truck = lots of room, fiero = no room, thirdgen = no room between engine and firewall. Plenty of room width wise and infront of the motor but I'll be damned if you can move the engine 3 inchs towards the firewall. I've got a picture of me using a standard wrench SITTING on my old engine unbolting it from the trans. Tim remembers, it's a tight fit back there! Now the redneck in me would expect somebody else here to say "**** it, we'll move dat dear rear forward and bang the tire well a little... ah **** dat too, let's just rake her race car style like." BTW, I think I found my old 86 SC that you could have for $50. The kid I sold it too drove it for a couple years and it's been sitting at his place with no plans. He wants to get rid of it, let me know if you need me to look into it further.
