- I hear ya!Your frame is narrower than mine.I don't think they make BBC headers for them,only fenderwell type.I've got a mid plate on it which helps make it tougher.The starter goes on first,then slide the headers in as it drops,then my extendable engine crane still doesn't extend quite far enough because of the long Monte nose,and the road is crowned & the motor wants to drop level so the dowels miss the mid plate by an inch on one side.yada yada yada! It's a wonder the car isn't dented beyond recognition & still has any glass left in it....LOL! Complications & a bad temper don't mix well..LOL! (NT) -- "BSR", 14:08:16 07/05/09 Sun
  - How did that starter make out last night? (NT) -- hopefully better than the cell phone....lol, 12:02:14 07/06/09 Mon
    - well,I had to put my old starter back on it..the brand new one was a piece of crap,but I kept the hammer away from it....just barely..LOL!We fired it up last night....had to,Junior made me..LOL! (NT) -- "BSR", 12:55:56 07/06/09 Mon
Looks good mark! Maybe one of these days my swap will be done and we'll run. (NT) -- Fellow Monte builder, 20:52:31 07/08/09 Wed
