Here is my setup.
72 demon 440 4 speed. manual steering and brake car. TTI 1 3/4" headers. trans dapt slant six to RB engine mount swap kit. 187 oil pan
Issues
--Mainly due to being a 4 speed car, driver header needed to be dented to clear the bar tube. I know this doesn't relate to you at all.
--187 oil pan is now dented from the centerlink hitting while turning right. I literally just finished this engine mount swap today. not even 10 miles on and the pan darn near has a hole in it. My fault for not remembering to check that clearance. Id like to shim the engine mounts a little to fix but that is not an option.
--Passenger header hits the torsion bar quite a bit. Otherwise the previously mentioned issue would be resolved.
If it was me starting over. I would not do the swap. Id build a nice healthy SB and go bang some gears.
