Yeah that one gets in the way on the 64. The engines were front and rear mount only remember for the 292 in 1964. I welded in a new universal crossmember the supports the engine and also added the transmission mount as well. I have no issues with frame flex except where my bed pops up from a rusted out floor board. Other then that nothing to worry about.
Now it would be a totally different story if my truck were a 65 and later. If you look at my gallery you will see what changed between 64 and 65.

I am in the process of dropping a 429 into my 1964 f100 SB 2wd. What headers did you use for your swap?

Raz Welcome to FTE & the Slicks forum. 
Hey man you tagged a 7 year old post. Maybe you can start a new one. Some of those guys aren't here any longer.
For the record there were no 429s ever installed in Ford pickups so there will not be any apps for them. Someone might come along if you start a new thread than may have a work around.
