The mount sits just behind the balancer so the pulley part is open. but between the rack of the balancer and the motor mount top cover (oil shield?) there is about 1/10th of an inch. I'm just worried that if the engine/mount flexes a bit the balancer sill chew up the mount.

I am currently digging back in to a 1953 3800 (one ton) with a nine foot bed. I've owned it since 1979, and drove it until 1982 (or so). My wife got me involved in restoring it back in 2002, got the body removed and the frame redone, then things came up. Now I am retired and starting again. If anyone is interested I have photos on Imagur (
