The hanging pedal kit was not a terribly bad installation. You want to measure multiple times, especially if using the large GM type brake booster. There is not alot of room between the engine, the hood, the clutch master cylinder and air cleaner.

The Radiator being used was a Stock 251 Radiator I had the lower outlet moved to the opposite side and had a 5 row core installed into it. Basically converting the truck to a Late 251 Truck by using the 251 Brackets and supports. The Power Steering pump and pulley alignment worked well with the proper length of aluminum spacers and patience. The bed was the easiest I had ever done. A few hours of cutting and buffing the paint, new rubber insulators and the Nevada desert saved the wood. It set right back on and looked perfect.
The Front mount does make for a tight fit on the fuel pump and lines on the passenger side. Now it is time to start running wires and hopefully soon test fire the engine.

Here is the test fire of the motor. I believe this is day 5 of sleeping on a creeper, by this time also the Pizza Hut deliveryman knew right where to drop off late night dinner.
Let me know if the link loads and if you can see it or not.
