Default Do you have the shocks set at the same height?

MAGS427 Frank until the motor is in the car, I wouldn't get too crazy over a rubbing. For the front shocks and springs the collars should be about 2/3's of the way high in the front and about 1/2 in the back until the motor and your wieght are in the car and you can get on some scales and setup the weight. I have 3 shims in the front and back adjustment locations to get the camber and caster into the ball park of spec. They are 1/8" each. You will need to go to the alignment shop and have the car setup to spec after the other work is done. The specs are in the manual to give to the shop. Tell them this is what you want. When done you want about 5 1/2 inches from the floor to each corner of the frame. I measure behind the front wheels and in front of the back wheels. You also didn't say which wheel combo you are running? 15" or 17"? Get the motor in the car and give it a chance to settle with the motor and trans wieght. After 746 cars, ERA is not going to have 747 cause a problem.
