Interesting
Using Method 1 the thing that forces the spacers is that the 3.6 tin even modified is so tall that when it contacts the chassis the engine can't go higher.
look at the 2 pics above of 2 different 993 engines you can see how high the 993 tin is compared to the Sheridan f/g designed for the swap. W/ 964 there is the additional problem of the f/i stack height which is greater than that of a 993 engine, This may be another different reason for spacers. Way back when I first had a 964 in there and that was the genesis of the method 1 install.
