It's not as bad as it looks. Pull the wire holder and they are pretty easy. Like I said the 429/460 is narrower than the FE motor.

ya id stick with a small block, u can make just as much power with a stroker motor and u can spend the money that would b cutting shock towers and firewalls into suspension/engine/interior goodies

horsepower or the biggest engine isnt the 1st priority u should b looking at
