I have an 87 S10 front frame welded on with the complete unit of disc brakes and power steering, stabilizer bar etc. I'm still in the process of building it for my 46. I've mocked it up a few times and the only problem I've encountered is the front rad interferes with the pwr steering. I think I can raise the rad a few inches within the rad support though. Also I think you might be restricted for the size engine you want to put in, you could probably go up to a 350 as I am doing but the original sleepy six or a V6 would probably fit nice. Cheers, Bob T
