X3 for a PA. Mine also has 1 1/2" drop, I wish I would have known and ordered it with a Pinto rack! I've got issues
between the rack and my oil pan. How did yours fit? You running mounts or engine plate?

Im running motor plates, so I could move it pretty much where I wanted, to alleviate any problems.

Morrisracing: I don't want to hijack the post, but I'm sure that I'm not the only one that would like to see pictures of your setup if you have any! I'm going to be pulling the engine out soon and am considering going back in with motor plates, but I'm a little worried about opening a "can of worms" by going that way! Pictures would be helpful in seeing how low your engine sits in relation to the rack and how close it is to the radiator and firewall.

I will try to get some pictures this afternoon.

Here are some pics. Hope it is what you are looking for. Keep in mind im not a photographer
If you need anything else, or a different angle, let me know.

Nice looking setup. Are those front roll cage bars in the way of working on the engine? Thinking of doing mine like that but was curious if it would hinder reaching down to change the plugs, install the header bolts, etc...

Thanks.

Thanks for the compliment. The bars dont get in the way at all. Almost half of the front bar is inside the strut tower. Ive changed plugs, re-torqued heads, and even removed the heads with no problem.

Just what I wanted to hear. Thanks
