Thanks everyone, Bob it's at Forked River Diesel getting Cummins QSB 380's and if that is to much we will de-tune accordantly 355,330 or 305 evidently it's just a few keystrokes on the computer and you dial in your hp

Bob shaft logs are out and the bedding area ground out waiting to glass in tubes, that is as far as I can go until engine angles are established

There is something missing here! You are the one to tell the installer " this is NOT a normal installation you want to slide a nickel under the drain plug of the ZF transmission and that is the total clearance from bilge. You will have to tilt struct with shim to creat new shaft angle.
