Livemeyer, your truck looks good and the 327 and headers look like they fit with the stock steering assembly. Do you know if the driver's side manifold was modified at all to fit between the steering gear? I'm just curious because it seems like getting a V8 into the engine bay with stock steering always comes down to that pinch point. Folks have mentioned using a passenger side late 60's camaro manifold on the driver's or a ram's head manifold side since they are narrow with the outlet is shifted more forward.
Apologies for this not helping with your no-start situation, but your engine bay looked good and I wondered how the V8 fit so cleanly.
