318 Poly in an Early A Body?

I'm considering buying a 318 poly to put in my 64 Barracuda, along with an A727 trans. I know the heads are a bit larger, but I'm hoping there's room. Any headaches or horror stories to report?
FYI, with a LOT of first hand poly experiences, you're gonna have a time stuffing it in, especially around the steer shaft. it is actually wider than a 383 or a 440. And weighs nearly as much. You'll need bigger torsion bars. Also, if you have power steering and want to keep in, forget it with the poly in the early darts. I have an early B body with factory power steering and there's barely an 1/8th between the head and the power steering box.

Assuming that is a push button transmission, you'll have to be careful with the cable routing but you should be able to reuse the cables.

No matter what, you're looking at a very tight fit
