This is targeted towards the fellows out there that have a 409 in tri five chevy's. I would like to know what you did for clearence between the pan and steering linkage? I have a 56 chevy, and I had to notch out the pan for clearence. There must be a better solution because I feel I'm not getting full pick up of oil or something. When I rev the engine and let up, the oil light comes on sometimes.(I also have a oil gauge and the pressure drops) I know my oil is full. There must be a solution, also, how about headers, any suggestions? The steering box is very close, if not touching the stock exhaust manifold......any help would be appreciated. OH OH, while I got your attention, what about the motor mounts, is there mount I can get for the frt. mounts. I didn't install this motor and who ever did just used some bent steel w/rubber bumpers. This has bugged me for years!
