is this the truck oilpan or the caddy CTS V one... ?? and why the facination of keeping the transmission in stock lovation.. id set the engine where it fits, bolt the cross member to the transmission and weld some mounting tabs to the frame to set yout CroMo trans x.member where ever it needs to be...
heck all youd need was to extend the existing "ears" on the frame where the x.member bolts up, sure that one could make somthing in an hour that was just fine... my first idea was to stick some square tubing into the frame, where the existing crossmember attaches.. affix with bolts, set the new CroMo unit on it and mark up where to drill for the new bolt... drill and install.
