Doug's headers and mini-starters

FWIW up up and away. Followed Andy F's lead and lifted the k-frame/engine/trans assembly up using my cherry picker. I had to spend one evening getting the transmission aligned with the mount, so I ended up in a battle to loosen then retighten all the motor mount bolts. It's exactly that kind of stuff that led me to go with the k-frame install, but you can't have it all.

The headers don't touch the steering box now either. I don't think they could've fit any tighter :thumbsup:

There's a 1/4" stack of shims under the driver's side biscuit to try to level it out. Will check with a level once the car's back on it's tires

If you're using biscuit mounts, the 69 - 318 van mounts are a little thicker than the car, and you could use those insteada washers . . . or not.
Good job .
