magnum engine swap

[bigjohnson3]

I have a 67 barracuda that I have restored and I am using a 74 dart k frame with the spool type motor mounts and a 97 magnum 360 engine. the problem I have is I am trying to install 67 to 76 hooker headers and it appears they wont fit especially on the passenger side due to a large boss for the magnum truck motor mounts. has anyone ran in to this before and is there a fix or different headers? thanks!

Get the grinder out and start grinding on the block, that's how most people do it.

X2 Mock Up on engine stand, grind away.

I'd recommend what gtsdude said, it sounds sketchy but it works.

Repeated, I hate grinding. It's ,a fact of life...

Grinder is what I used on mine. On the engine stand is much easier than in car.
