Yes, I cut the dimple off and welded the clevis on the end to get the best geometry and most adjustability.

I'm not that familiar with FE's but the crank flange on your engine looks like it extends further than I have ever seen, causing the flywheel and clutch to protrude further into the bh. When you add in the short input shaft tko and shallow bh, you have a lot less room. I guess that must be normal for an FE, but it looks excessive to this FE novice!
