Not at all - I suspect I just got lucky. I used some headers from Summit for a 75 C20 because that's what my motor and front suspension came off of, but I ended up using the 65 motor mount anyway. I did have to significantly modify the drivers side motor mount for header clearance, but not the frame at all.
