NEED HELP (power steering clearance?)

[AzCoupe]

If someone can help me out, I'd really appreciate it...... I need to know how much clearance there is between the top of the dizzy (stock dizzy and/or Duraspark - preferably both) to the bottom of the power steering pump. Unfortunately, none of my cars have power steering.

We know the DUI doesn't clear, but we're trying to figure out if we can shorten up the shaft on the DUI, so it does? If I know the clearances, I should be able to compare the dizzy heights and figure it out. If anyone has a photo from the side, that would help too.....

THANKS....

Alternately, you could made an adapter plate to run a Saginaw pump which is much flatter than the ford pump. I'm using one and the DUI fits without any problem. A simple plate would do the trick, and I even have a cardboard template to get you started...

Here are a few pictures and the start of a write up to give you some idea of what I mean.
