Not trying to hijack but here’s a picture with the Hooker manifold and Saginaw PS kit from Advanced Adapters. Engine is offset 1” to driver’s side for front driveshaft clearance, engine mount flush with the top of the frame.
There’s about 1/2” to 3/4” clearance between the 3/4” DD steering shaft and the manifold. I put the 1” DD part of the shaft on the bottom.
