No, but if you ship me one of those new 572 crate motors, I'll let you know how hard it was to install. They definitely have a high-rise intake, and some serious height on the carbs... You would need to get some hood clearance in the cowl. Length and width, they are supposed to be just-another-bigblock.

Personally, I want to stuff one of these into my `81... but my wife won't let me replace an engine that runs just fine, and I can't seem to get it to break in a hideous enough fashion to convince her. Damn thing has over 211k on the original engine and just won't quit!

If that one doesn't fit, I'll make it fit.
