Hey guys, I was able to hang my engine today and wanted to start installing electrics for it now. Unfortunately there are several clearance issues. I use the ACS heavy mounts but this shouldn't be an issue here. While I might be able to change the lower oil pickup fitting with a regular 90° piece, I fear serious problems with the clearance of the oil pan itself to the tubing of the engine mount.

How did this work with you others? Engine is a paralle valve IO-360 that has been converted to an AEIO-360EXP.
