If this is a factory big block A-Body it looks like you are missing the spacer that goes between the ball bracket and the bell housing.
I have the spacer for sure...it seems the bell sits too far back but it bolts into the crossmember well so I don't think that's it...

No, I bought it and it was converted already. I wish I would have taken notice of how well it aligned when I took it apart.So the car was a factory manual trans car?
With this BB I barely have room for error...as it is It looks as though I will have to shave a fin from the back of a valve cover to clear the blower motor. I don't want it further forward because it looks like I will need the room for my fan...View attachment 1715554701
Looks like something was added there. May need to change the frame hole location and stock bracket. The Z bar should be straight across in any view.
You might consider fan and firewall clearance if you by chance have the engine too far rearward.
Mid page shows parts and exploded views in link below. Both sketches show the bracket 90° off. But a picture of the bracket below is correct.......
Mopar Big-Block A-Body 4-Speed Conversion
HemiSSdart picture is correct as well......

Yeah it should. Then too, dealing with a conversion it's worth a look IMO.....doesn't the trans xmember set the front to back pretty close to where it has to go give or take?
