Engine alignment
« on: January 07, 2009 - 03:54:48 PM »
I have recently put the engine and trany into the Cuda and when I put the fan shroud on the radiator the fan is rubbing up against it on the passenger side.

Is there a measurement I can use that will show whether the engine is straight or not. 

Thanks.

Not too sure but I had the same issue with a shroud I just got for my car....I couldn't get it to line up or anything, so I took it out.   :dunno:

I believe TTI specs an engine location as part of their installation process.  You may be able to find that somewhere online.
