: : im trying to put a 351into my 76 mav,got ex. manifolds from mid 60s 289 but they are real close to the steering box,but i do have some clearance, dont know yet what kind of problems im going to have with heads and rocker covers,whether or not they will fit without having to move the brake booster,would appreciate any info
: : George, I hope you notched the shock towers, cause this makes changing plugs possible and makes valve covers etc. easier too jim,i haven't really gotten to the point of worrying about plugs etc. yet,what i really need to know is if there is any way of getting anymore clearance between the ex. man.and the steering box,and if i dont notch the towers will a set of stock valve covers fit between the engine and brake booster,thanks for the info and i will look for you wheni start the notching process, thanks
