I had another thought this morning. If the engine were to be moved foreward to the front set of holes in the frame, I don't believe the Z bar stud would match up. Was there a bracket that would center the stub between the 2 bolt homes in the engine?
Those of you changing over to an automatic wouldn't have to worry about this. Anyone change from a 6 to a V-8 and retain the MT?
