Notching Firewall on pre-1964 Valiants to Allow for Distributer

[Hot Rod 63 Valiant]

Ok, since I do not currently have a small block Mopar engine for mock up, can anyone who has notched a pre-64 firewall tell me the exact location & dimensions of what the notch or "cubby hole" needs to be. We are going to do all the body work, mini tub, etc. this winter & will have it painted top, bottom, inside, & out before I drop the motor in. I just wanted to go ahead & put the notch in before we have it painted.

Thanks again,
Rob

The later V8 ready cars are flat were the distributor is, no cubby hole.

I've got a fire wall and wiper mount out of a later car, if you want. You can have it, just pay for the shipping.
