Well, your gonna have to drill holes and set the screws in...if you are just going to do a test fit, don't install all of the screws. Do the two bump stop screws (already existing) and maybe two on the flats. The easy ones. We just did a 67 Camaro for full roller mock up to mark hole placment and it worked just fine.
We used c-clamps, a porta power and floor jack to make sure the brackets were flush to the frame rails then used a punch to mark the hole placment. Pulled the cradle down, drilled 19/64" holes then gave it a whack with a cone punch to give the tap screws some meat to start into. Ran them in slow with an air ratchet then pulled them out. Makes it easier to install the cradle later, especially when its balancing on your head.
