    what kind of trans are you using? I know TH350's are what are normally swapped in, but the parking brake has to be removed, it's right in the way. the steering box is normally close but they do clear the V8. what won't fit that you can see? or is in the way I should say.
    You don't know what you've got til it's gone

    3 speed automatic w/o overdrive.... from the way it looks it is just too close to the firewall.... i cant move the motor forward, because then the rad will not fit in. those brackets you found, say if i order one, will i get one, or is it one set....?
