Ok, something I'm curious about on '67-'72 trucks. Bit of a weird question, and I can understand if you don't have the answer.

I made a set of homemade mounts that have similar bolt positions to these: https://holley.com/products/ls_power...parts/12622HKR

Then I put the stock engine stands in the six cylinder position so the engine mounted in the same location. I used a set of used 2010 Camaro exhaust manifolds, and had to do a lot of sawing and welding on the stock engine stands to make them clear everything.

Would the Hooker manifolds have cleared this?
