magnum manifolds in a early a

[FONT=&quot]I just dropped the motor in my 65 Barracuda last Monday, and it seems to fit with very little modifications. I’m using manifolds out of a 96 Ram with 2” outlets and I what I did (with advice and information I got from this great forum!) was shave the driver side manifold 0.200”, and with new motor mounts then added a ½ spacers I made on either side to raise the motor up some. The stock coupling is close but it does clear the manifold just fine. I will have to cut 2” off the steering column sleeve and with the spacers in place the engine does tilt back a little but everything still clears just fine and if this would bother you then you could always shim the transmission to get it back in line (I don’t think it will be a problem however). I’ll try and post pictures tomorrow[/FONT]
