Are you using motor mounts or front engine plate,schumacher has a set-up with using mounts,also if you don't mind making wide turns fenderwell headers is a budget way to go or find some pro-parts if you don't mind cutting fenderwells,tti makes undercar header but is pricey from what i hear,oil pans the 187 pan should work but double check or aftermarket 1 to(depends on your plan use for the car)might be hood clearance issuses also depends on intake and air cleaner...p.s check clearance for p.s pump if using 1 might have to go manual

At this point I dont think I want to cut the fenders. This is a very nice car. But still factory /6. I will check with tti. This will be a street car.

Lots of things to consider. The "187" pan from a C-body (699, also as I recall) is the best fit, but the idler may still hit. Using a 73-up centerlink gives more clearance due to the idler and pitman arm studs pointing down. Spend some time in the tech pages at www.bigblockdart.com to answer some of your questions and probably raise more.

need the pan w the idler indentation. The shallow /6 centerlink will clear fine.

No such thing as a 67-up slant centerlink. They are all the same for 67-72. Then the design changed for 73 and was used until the end in 1976. The later one should clear better and possibly clear even the un-notched pan. I will be finding out later this year.

Can't switch to that centerlink without also changing the steering box to a 73 and later box ... fyi
