Test fitted the engine tonight and with the motor mounts I bought the stock exhaust manifolds will work. But the fuel pump I bought doesn't fit so I will need to notch the frame some and for cooling I will have to put the radiator in the core support to fit a mechanical fan.

Nothing is fitting right today :evil: . I had to cut up my passenger frame to fit the fuel pump, then cut off my shock mount to clear the exhaust manifold and now I'm gonna need to cut up my floor pan on the passenger side to clear the exhaust.. I'm just taking a break for a while now cause pulling the motor out every time to clearance something else is a bitch..
