Thank you! The manifold fits great with a little work. I had to massage the top of the engine stand on the right side a little, about a 1" of it. The engine stand has two raised bumps in it and the one closest to the firewall needed to be flattened out, I heated it with the torch and hammered it down just until it was as flat as the engine stand. I am running Dirty Dingo 73-87 motor mounts and I added some 3/8" plate in between the engine and the dirty dingo mount to allow added clearance for the manifold from the frame rail. Also the dirty dingo mounts are slotted and the motor is pushed over to the left side as far as the slots would allow.
