Avanti Steering!

[mfg]

When all else fails, what is an acceptable way to gain clearance between power steering ram and crankshaft pulley on both Studebaker & Chevrolet V8 powered Studebaker framed Avantis?

No thoughts here?

I’ve seen Avanti frames with the front cross member dented in…so I’m saying it was acceptable to hammer the cross member in the right spot to make clearance.  Using a higher engine mount would cause interference with the hood so the alternative is to put a dent in the cross member.
