Cashburn, good point!! I thought the same thing to myself earlier. I ended up moving the engine back today. I was able to notch the engine mount plates and move it back ~1" so it would be in the second to the last bolt hole on the old mount plates. To do this with the tranny mount I had to take 1/4" notch out of the mount bar to allow the engine to go back as far a possible. It took some fiddling especially with the shifter hole (which might be a little big now for the boot to cover!) . I am going to reinforce the the tranny mount bar with a 1/4" bar to sandwiched on the botom side.
I did specify a T-56, had I known I would have made sure it was the correct driveshaft. Ended up having it made and they used solid U-joint (no grease fitting) and a larger U-joint up front. Total length 11 3/4".
