    Engine Bay Dimensions

    Hi guys - this forum is excellent! I'm looking to get my build started (had my heart set on a '33 roadster for years) but have a few quick questions - hopefully someone here can provide some answers...

    Does anyone have the dimensions for the engine bay in the factory five frame? Basically looking from length from the firewall to the front coilovers, and the width at the firewall and also right before the coilovers.

    I'm looking for these dimensions to see if the engine I want to use will fit the bay - FFR's site only lists a few options and I'd like to get a little more crative than that...

    Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

    On #209 the dimensions are:

    Firewall to Coil Overs = 30 3/4" (actually measured from firewall to inboard portion of steering rack)
    Width at Firewall = 29 3/4"
    Right Before Coil Overs = 13 3/4" (actually measured frame to frame inboard of steering rack)

    Hope that helps.
