One of the more unique items I've seen on this site. I'm actually envious that the builder saw the need to build a jig like this.

If you do much of this work, this tool is a backsaver. My son and I just wrestled his small block with trans attached into his chassis for measurment and clearance matters...a mockup would have saved oodles of time and energy.
