I'm going to do my best to set it right...

I was wondering if maybe the rear transmission mount sitting on top of that crossmemeber wasn't forcing the front of the engine to be too low..the front engine mount looks a little low, but i have nothing to gauge it by...i don't have a hand crank but a socket extension seems to line up with the crank hole OK....

The brake cross tube does not touch the transmission, but it's pretty close...I was able to get the speedo drive gear off to check it and remove the mangled speedo cable...

Lots of issues here for sure.....
