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

I did the big block swap two years ago. I used the conversion mounts from small block to big block. I know every k frame is a bit different due to the factory assembly but I gotta say that I was not very impressed with how the mounts fit. I bought the shims, but getting the motor straight and level was a chore. I bought a factory big block k frame I may change to later. The 1 3/4 tti headers fit ok, but you have to install them with steering column out as well as torsion bars removed and even then the drivers side is avtight fit. The biggest issue involved the 4 speed swap. The headers run very close to the z bar. As noted by another member, starter install is a trick in itself. I had to put a DEI wrap on mine to avoid hot start issues. Don't get me wrong, my car gets a ton more looks with a big block 4 speed, but a small block would have saved me a ton of headaches.
