that occured to me on the plane, theres room to move the 20b back, on an fc. you end up with more room in the firewall area (cosmo vs 13bt), the sticky wicket is the shifter moving

the fd tranny has the slave on the side of the tranny, its kind of on the rear left side of the bellhousing, the fd bellhousing is about 1" longer than the fc though, due to the pull type clutch.
as far as the shifter goes you have 2-3 options.
1. the 87-93 b2600/mpv have bascially a t2 tranny and the shifter is more foreward, i cant remember how much off the top though. the down side to this is that in the truck they have the tranny tilted, so in an fc the shifter would be slanted.
2. you can cut the t2 shift rod and move the shifter tower forward to the next bolt hole, i'm not sure you could get 4" out of it though
hmm thats all i got
