455 Engine in a 1956 88 Coupe?
 
Anyone done this engine swap? I want to do it, but heard there was many obstacles installing a 455 with TH400 transmission in a 1956 88. Any suggestions, or outlet's for bracket's, etc? Heard there was exhaust issues, steering box issues, etc. Can i run headers or just factory exhaust manifolds, etc. Not too concerned about the drive shaft, as I know that will need modified.
