Realistic estimate Please

I have a "Thingy" that you can crank to tilt the motor front to back, is this what you are talking about?

Yes that is it. Are you putting the engine and trans in as one unit?

In my opinion you need to have the front of the car as high as possible and the back just sitting down low (when putting the engine and trans in as 1 unit) . It helps cut the angle down and sliding it in the trans tunnel.
When are you doing your swap?
