Rear steer is narrower and works great. I move the engine back a couple inches on the subframe and it works great, if you mount on stock location engine mounts the engine is too far forward. No oil pan or header problems either way. I put the subframe under the truck frame and ride height is about the same as the Camaro. Front bumper mounts is the hardest part. Some people say its old tech, but they still use coil springs and A arms today. And there are plenty of mods you can do to upgrade if you want, but I'm happy with how a 69 Camaro drives. Especially compared to the stock straight axle.

I know its easier. Ive installed them before. I was just trying to do a very low buck set up but in the end I decided not to fo the camaro clip. Whatever I end up with will get a Mustang II because as you mentioned, its easier and wheel/tire selection is easier.
