Then you can mount the newer steering can be mounted up,giving you all kinds of room for any v8 you want to drop in there.
Back of radiator mount/cross member gets clearance just a little for clearance.
The suspension from late 60s-80s chevy 2wd trucks is basically same design from 1/2t-1t trucks.
So even on the 1/2t version youll need to narrow the newer crossmembe to fit. wink
I like apples and I like oranges, and I like people who take the time to try to help, but I am asking how to install a 350 and power steering in a 1/2 ton AD with a stock 'everything else'. Far be it from me to call out "off topic", as I may well be the biggest violator of that particular rule on this site. Just trying to entice focus.
Thank you,
Carl
