I have noticed that alot of luvs that have had the v8 swap have had to notch out a section of the front cross member part right below the radiator. Now DIARMADHIM's truck doesn't have it notched out. WHY?? Does it just matter on where you position the motor mounts, trani mount, and the length of your driveline??? Thanks

yeah all that, but I think it also matters if you use a short water pump and a single groove pulley on the harmonic balancer.
if you use a dual groove you will prolly have to notch the crossmember.
