If your running a stock brake booster it may hit valve covers so you need to decide what your going to exchange that with and there are many options. The front fender wells will need to be cut where they meet the frame. Your hood will drop closer to your motor, LS might be OK. Your going to have to raise trans tunnel and may have to channel for exhaust system. Wait, it gets better, depending on tires, wheels, and backspace, you may have to stretch fenders and quarter panels. I want to keep my track width so thats where I'm headed. I probably left a couple of things out that have to do with firewall dropping but you get the idea.

I like this idea, what are your thoughts of welding the frame into the body structure? I will be putting in an LS motor as well, will not be using a stock style booster for brakes. Yea I realize the amount of work I'm talking about but to get what you envision is worth it in the end.
