I pulled the trigger on a set of long tube stainless headers 2276-7 with Hooker, Holley 12618 new gen (latest design) mounts, and the 302-2 Holley pan. Already using their X member for my TH400 which also works for the T56 I picked up from a fella in Indy yesterday. The headers will need the mod, and possibly the pan. It appears there are some people doing this set up without having to mod the pan by using 5.8" idler and pitman arm. We'll see what happens. I have a TIG so I may have to do my first aluminum mod with it. Lol. I'll update this when I get this swap started. Probably this spring. I'm collecting parts now.
Let's keep this thread going. I see this benefiting members in the future.

yes the trans cover WILL work with the 69 factory console if you are wanting to use the gauges you will need to modify the mount to lift it up a bit. guess you need to decide what is more important engine/trans fit and alignment or the stock appearing interior???
