Question for those that swapped a big block into their A body.

I have a stroked 400(470) in my 69 B'cuda with a 4spd and man steering. The headers and z-shaft are the tough spot. I use CPPA headers(old and much like TTI)with a stock BB k-frame and mounts. It all fits but it's tight and you won't be happy if you need to replace the starter...lol. I run an 8 1/4 with 3:73s. It's a street toy so it works just fine..if I put sticky tires on it,it might not. I run 73-up disc brakes in frt.,drums rear. I fabbed some frame connectors and put Hellwig sway bars front and rear. The car handles just fine....it goes straight when being hammered on and handles corners with ease. Healthy BB in A bodies are a blast. Most times I run out of road long before that stroker runs out of pull!!!
