Then again mine is non-bushed 67-72. I get a feeling that as much trucks hit the alignment rack we'll see varying results as the original index holes are not in the same spot all the time.
I would have to measure the shafts again to give an accurate answer. They were new Moog shafts & I just drilled new holes .750" from where they were (this was before it came to light about the variations found).

That being said, the aligned set-up is the currently available Porterbuilt 1" forward lower a-arms so the lower BJ's are 1" forward of the OE location.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
