Engine tilt
Is there any engine tilt in 24s? had some Risers/pipes fabricated and they are off by two inches. Another pantera owner noted that looks like engine is tilted upwards towards the transom. Outdrive alignment bar slides right in, etc. Took out a 502 that was on race mounts. Dropped in a 454/496 stroker engine, which dropped right in. When looking at pictures with horizontal/level lines and then the angle of the engine, looks like if tilt engine level, pipes might line up. Any feedback?

Yea, we had the risers reworked and still had to put small wedges in to make the risers hit the ports. So far so good. No issues to report. New engine is running good and strong.
