Sometimes a mini starter had to be installed, sometimes a double hump cross member, shorter spark plugs with different boot angles... Same with "just" installing a classic Holley carb - different fuel lines, different linkages, different air cleaner, jetting the carb, moving things around to accommodate the fuel bowls, and on and on and on...

Here is an image of a C2 Vette with an LS7 installed by https://www.streetshopinc.com/, showing how they chose to move the fuel line around the front of the hydraulic brake assist unit and master cylinder:



Hopefully you won't have to get too involved in re-engineering your fuel line!
Thanks, I just need to put it together and measure but the C3 box comes out further thus pushing it very close to the Alternator. I think I will need to go under it
