Hi everyone

Anyone else ran into this problem before?
Thanks
If I remember correctly, if any hammering has to be done it will be on the windage tray. If the engine is not assembled I would machine a little off the studs, I'm not a big fan of hammering to make room if possible.
I had the same problem, but I used a windage tray and two gaskets it just fits. I talked to the machine shop

HI
I would build a jig to hold the car in place and together, take a lot of measurements and pics before you
start cutting it apart. Mine had a lot of rust and was hit in the passenger side. Had to replace the passenger side frame rail as well. Hope this helps
