Looking at where my engine as it sits my 71... as long as the engine is back enough to give you the room in front. I would think you would work out ok.

Only area I am not sure about is, how close the Lower Radiator hose and the upper A-Arm will be.

Can't wait to if it works, how far foward does it sit? Would like to do the same on a a-body. Also heard something about belt tension burning up WP/PS and Alt so they run some sort of pully system that uses the 4 rib belt so the 6 rib just for the prochager

Not sure about how far it sits but I have a flip drive with a 8 rib set up on it with the procharger brackets... I will just be using the altinator because it has a manual box on it and I just bought a electric water pump also so I should know some thing next week for sure... At least I hope !!!!!
