Volare /390 / C6

Hi Guys
Am getting set to put a 390 / C6 into my 56 M100, I have the Volare clip in , FF427 Headers, and Rear sump oil pan, does anyone have some pictures or advice before I get started welding in mounts or any pictures of the install?

Make sure the power steer pump is on and driver side header clears I steering box and steering shaft. You can move the motor approx 1 to 1 1/4 towards passenger side if need. I have done a few of these and these are the areas I have had the most challenge with. If you have not done it already you might want to change the sway bar from the 3/4" to the 1 1/8 sold by addco or PST
