Thanks to all for the help so far. I am in a quandary. I have the carrier mounted correctly (arrow forward) and the exhaust separated, and I'm coming up ~2" short trying to mount on the driver side rear. The carrier is in the way. Its either the pipe is bent or the motor is somehow not mounted correctly. Here is the help I need: I need to find someone willing to measure the distance on the drivers side rear head lower exhaust port bolt to the engine carrier (straight line, shortest distance and a second measurement from center of same bolt hole plumb line down to plane level of bottom of carrier. I would myself (and tried today, had a tape in pocket on way to work but the one westy I found and pulled over to measure turned out to be a Tiico conversion!) but don't have a comparison Thank you!
