Trouble changing fan belt

[Bill Goddard]

I can not change my fan belt without removing the front engine mount screws from the engine and raising the engine about 1/16" to let the belt pass through the gap between the crank pulley rim and the flange of the forged motor mount. I have been using a BX cross-section belt that is 13/32" thick and 5/8" wide. This is too thick
I can use an AX cross-section which is 5/16" thick and 1/2" wide. This passes through nicely. I think I have a repo forged front mount that is too short allowing the flange to close the gap to the crank pulley. Most people I tell this to tell me to just lift the motor but they forget the relationship of pulley to mount flange is fixed by the engine bolts.

Is there a ford drawing that shows the proper dimension from the 2 bolt holes to the under side of the mount flange? I can't believe Henry built 4.5 million cars with this defect. This could be a problem on the side of the road.
Thanks, Bill G
