there is a ton of room under this thing to get to, and the motor is lifted up an 1" also.  i ran a piece of tube across under the pan with two bends to go down around the pan.  should be cozy to the pinion housing at full driver bump, but fine.  No links or exhaust in the way.  exhaust will be tucked up between the oil pan and flywheel dust shield.

Looks like nice piece of pipe there.

I think the exhaust tuck might also fix the cat rattle on the belly skid if not addressed already.

2,000lb jack is plenty for my trailer, no?  I mean it’s just for the tongue weight right?  The axles hold the lions share if there is a Jeep on it..

we will get it!

fixed this little issue yesterday.  was sucking my thumb to the manifold in two places.  found howell gasket has 2 cap heads right in the edge of a TBI gaskety surface.  sucked the gasket in.  (red spacer exact print of GM TBI, used for air cleaner height help)

TBI guru #1, Bret from Semper FI racing stopped over and agreed the leaky aftermarket injector has to go.  the left side pod is just dumping fuel like crazy idle to WOT.

i swapped in some 350 injectors but they are just way too much fuel for this girl.
