I know its been done many times, but friend having much trouble.  What alterations are necessary to make this swap work.  
Part of problem is Twin H linkage interferes with cowl/ firewall area.  Exhaust manifold  hits on cowl also.  Please help!

Tve only heard pitman arm could rub side of pan rail on block, however mine cleared the pitman since mounted little lower with different front mounts & reat Hydro mounts. I dont have Twin H though so probably need make a slight dent to clear.

What year engine? 55-56 use different manifolds then earlier years. Might be the problem. I will assume you are using the eight cylinder front mount holes in frame.

 Using a 1950  262.  Firewall is as built, no dents etc. also finish painted.  Owner doesn't want to use a big Hammer.

I put a 56 Hornet engine in my 40 2dr sedan. I'm using a Clifford 4 barrel intake and headers, a stepdown front engine plate, and a 700r transmission. I'm using the 8 cylinder Engine mount holes in the frame. No mods to firewall. The pitman arm nut is just above the oil pan rail.
