5.7 with jeep manifolds

That is definately an option I may have to go with, I will have to have it welded though as I don't trust my welding skills on steering:) When I looked at the old Hot Rod magazine article, it looked like it had a lot more clearance in one of the pics, but they also spaced the engine up about a half an inch. I tried that and It really didn't help, it almost put it more in the manifold.
