He has a Wayne Due subframe. He's using an LSx engine with both the Mast and Fbody pans. The engine is hitting the front cross member when he tries to put the engine in place. He has seen other, possibly later versions, of the same subframe where it appears that the engine mounts are higher up in the subframe there by raising the engine. He'd like to know if someone can give him a height measurement from the top of the cross member to the engine stand on the frame if they happen to have a Wayne Due subframe also.

Fairly straight forward question really. Then again, I'm from the south and we talk "funny".

No one ask me to translate Cajun though. I can't do it. What can I say? A man has his limitations.

I'll try to measure mine if I can fit a tape up in there. Give me a few days unless someone gets back to you sooner. I know mine is an early wayne due, and it was set up for a big block. I cant remember the exact figures, but I probably cut the stands down on mine about 1.5-2" going on memory alone. I lowered it as much as possible before the pan hit the rack.

Hey Lube, I want you to know I was just taking an opportunity to try and make people smile, hopefully including yourself. I knew what you were asking and meant no offense by my joke which seems kinda lame right now.

I have an Art Morrison and know how an LS fits on my sub. Feel free to PM if you'd like to compare notes.

God bless and Merry Xmas! :cheers:

Anything in the Heidts catalog under the Pro-G line is not MII but is a clean sheet design using their forged tall dropped A/F/X spindle. Nearly all aftermarket subframes use a MII rack and pinion assembly.

Most other subframes are also clean sheet designs even though they may use C5/6 corvette components like uprights and/or control arms.

In most cases you will find dimensions to be very close from manufacture to manufacture and the major differences will be in cost/quality of components used.
