Given that US cars had their motors shifted to the right, is yours shifted to the left, or is the column shaft a really tight fit in the engine compartment?

I'm guessing that the motor is in the same position in the engine bay. The mounts look the same.
I'm unfamiliar with A bodys but it looks like the steering box is switched round. The steering arm points towards the back of the car on the Challenger but to the front on the Barracuda.
Also the Oil filter is re-located to the water pump with hard lines running up and next to the valve covers. Pics would explain this better, I'll take some when its light.
Headers normally have to be custom made but I'm looking into Australian Pacemaker headers since our Antipodean friends have RHD Chrysler Charger and Valiants, these may work on the Barracuda.

Color code should be UU1 on the fender tag if that's original paint.

Looks like its been painted based on the rear bumper..
its been bent in and I'm sure it got into the body
(and sprung back)
