Yes I have mocked a big block in our car with the BB stands, poly mounts, BB manual cross member, and a poly trans mount. I was relieved that the HEI does clear the firewall nicely.

Window trim fitment is not going very well for the windshield, both OE and aftermarket. This particular area normally is not that great on first-gen Camaros anyway. Kelly discovered with our car the windshield opening at the top is just a bit wider (roughly a 1/4”) than a factory car, not good. Another frustration is the dang molding clip studs have been popping off both front and rear (mainly from the roof skin) during this process, moving to a screw-in style stud for the fix. The sharpie marks around the back window are clip locations.
The good news (I’ll mention this again) is that the back window trim both OE and aftermarket fits great.
