Friend is getting ready to put a small block chevy in his stock henry with stock front frame and susp. Any one done it ?whats he in for,like steering box,floor pans ? any help for him?
It"ll fit, you just have to make some motor mounts. If he is setting the engine back then you'll have to cut the firewall and toe boards. I still run the stock front suspension and steering box in mine.
Of course exhaust clearance is an issue by the steering box, my suggestion is to get that figured out during the mockup before hard welding in the engine mounts. The stock springs will hold the weight also.
